JEE Advanced Mathematics question
Let be real numbers. Suppose are the roots of the equation and are the roots of the equation where . STATEMENT-1: , *and* STATEMENT-2: or
Answer: (B)
Solution
Both equations have real coefficients, so their roots are both real or a conjugate pair.
Suppose is non-real. Then (first equation) and (second equation), so , i.e. — excluded. So are real, hence $α,
