2(pr+qs)
Prove that the equation x^2(p^2 + q^2) + 2x(pr + qs) + r^2 + s^2 = 0 has no real roots. If ps = qr, then show that the roots are real and equal.
 
Answer:
 
Here, a =
, b =
, c =
 
\Delta = b^2 - 4ac =
 
Since \Delta =
, the given equation has
.
 
If ps = qr, then \Delta =
.
 
Therefore,
 if ps = qr and so the roots will be
.
 
Hence, we proved.
