Answer :
(i) Every quadratic equation has exactly one root: False
A quadratic equation has exactly two roots.
(ii) Every quadratic equation has at least one real root: False
A quadratic equation may have real or imaginary roots.
(iii) Every quadratic equation has at least two roots: False
A quadratic equation has exactly two roots, no more no less.
(iv) Every quadratic equation has at most two roots: True
A quadratic equation can’t have more than two roots.
(v) If the coefficient of x2 and the constant term of a quadratic equation have opposite signs, then the quadratic equation has real roots: True
The standard form of a quadratic equation is given by,
ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ≠ 0
So, if coefficient of x2(a) and constant term(c) have opposite signs then, the roots will always be real i.e.,
ac < 0
⇒ b2 - 4ac > 0
(vi) If the coefficient of x2 and the constant term have the same sign and if the coefficient of x term is zero, then the quadratic equation has no real roots: True
The standard form of a quadratic equation is given by,
ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ≠ 0
So, if coefficient of x2(a) and constant term(c) have the same sign and coefficient of x(b) is zero, then the roots will be imaginary.
ac > 0
⇒ b2 - 4ac < 0
