TS Inter 2nd Year Maths 2A Quadratic Expressions Formulas
→ A polynomial of the form f(x) = ax2 + bx + c (a ≠ 0) is called a quadratic expression.
→ Any equation of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 (a ≠ 0) is called a quadratic equation.
→ Let the roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 be α, β then
α = \(\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}\); β = \(\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4 a c}}{2 a}\)
Now b2 – 4ac > 0 roots are real and distinct.
- b2 – 4ac = 0 roots are equai and real,
- b2 – 4ac < 0 roots are imaginary.
- α + β = \(\frac{-b}{a}\): αβ = \(\frac{c}{a}\)
→ Let a, b, c be rational numbers, α, β are roots of the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 then
- α, β are equal rational numbers if Δ = 0.
- α, β are distinct rational numbers if Δ is the square of a non-zero rational number.
- α, β are conjugate surds if Δ > 0 and Δ is not the square of a rational number.
→ Let f(x) = ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ≠ 0, α, β are roots of equation
- if c ≠ 0 then αβ ≠ 0 and f(\(\frac{1}{x}\)) = 0 is an equation whose roots are \(\frac{1}{α}\) and \(\frac{1}{β}\)
- f(x – k) = 0 is an equation whose roots are α + k and β + k.
- f(- x) = 0 is an equation whose roots are – α and – β.
→ If α and β are roots of the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 with α < β then
- for α < x < β, ax2 + bx + c and a have opposite signs.
- for x < α or x > β, ax2 + bx + c and a have the same sign.
→ If a < 0, the expression ax2 + bx + c has maximum at x = \(\frac{-\mathrm{b}}{2 \mathrm{a}}\) and the maximum value is given by \(\frac{4 a c-b^2}{4 a}\)
→ If a > 0, the expression ax2 + bx + c has minimum at x = \(\frac{-\mathrm{b}}{2 \mathrm{a}}\) and the minimum value is given by \(\frac{4 a c-b^2}{4 a}\)
