Q51.The set of all real values of λ for which the quadratic equation (λ2 + 1)x2 −4λx + 2 = 0 always have exactly one root in the interval (0, 1) is : (1) (−3, −1) (2) (0, 2) (3) (1, 3] (4) (2, 4]

What This Question Tests

This question tests the analytical understanding of root location for a quadratic equation within a specific interval, requiring evaluation of the function at endpoints and considering boundary cases.

Concepts Tested

Conditions for exactly one root in an intervalValue of quadratic function at boundary pointsDiscriminant of a quadratic equation

Formulas Used

f(x) = ax² + bx + c

f(x₁)f(x₂) < 0 (for one root between x₁ and x₂)

Discriminant D = b² - 4ac
