Question
A quadratic equation has rational coefficients. If one of its root is , then the sum of its roots will be
- A.
- B.
- C.
- D.
Solution
The question seems to be incomplete or incorrectly formatted. However, I can tell you that if a quadratic equation has rational coefficients, then the sum of its roots is given by the negation of the coefficient of the second term (the 'b' in the general quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0) divided by the coefficient of the first term (the 'a' in the general quadratic equation).
If one root is given as 1 + √2, the conjugate of this root will also be a root of the equation due to the nature of quadratic equations with rational coefficients. The conjugate of 1 + √2 is 1 - √2.
The sum of the roots is then (1 + √2) + (1 - √2) = 2.
So, the answer would be A. 2.
