MCQ
Solve – x2 + x – 2 = 0.
  • A
    $\frac{-1\pm\text{i}\sqrt{7}}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{1\pm\text{i}\sqrt{7}}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{1\pm\sqrt{7}}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{1\pm\sqrt{7}}{2}$

Answer

  1. $\frac{1\pm\text{i}\sqrt{7}}{2}$

Solution:

$\text{x}^2+\text{x}-2=0$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}^2-\text{x}+2=0$

$\text{D} =(-1)^2-4\times1\times2=1-8=-7\leq0$

Since $\text{D}\leq0,$ imaginary roots are there.

$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{\text{D}}}{2.1}=\frac{1\pm\text{i}\sqrt{\text{D}}}{2.1}$
