Q61.Let p, q ∈ Q . If 2 −√3 is a root of the quadratic equation x2 + px + q = 0, then (1) p2–4q + 12 = 0 (2) q2 + 4p + 14 = 0 (3) p2–4q–12 = 0 (4) q2–4p–16 = 0

What This Question Tests

This question tests the understanding that irrational roots of a quadratic equation with rational coefficients appear in conjugate pairs. Using this property, both roots can be identified, and subsequently, the coefficients p and q can be found using Vieta's formulas to determine the correct option.

Formulas Used

If p,q are rational, and a+√b is a root of Ax²+Bx+C=0, then a-√b is also a root.

Sum of roots = -p/1

Product of roots = q/1
