Quadratic Equations
Roots and Coefficients
Grade 11
Question:
<p>If the other roots of equations are reciprocal to each other, then <p>(q - b)^2</p> is equal to</p>
<p>(A) $(p - a)^2$</p>
<p>(B) $b(p - a)^2$</p>
<p>(C) $q(p - a)^2$</p>
<p>(D) $bq(p - a)^2$</p>
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: When roots are reciprocal to each other, their product equals 1, which constrains the relationship between coefficients.
