If 1 ∈ α , β where α , β are the roots of the equation x 2 - a x + 1 + 3 = 0, then
Options
- Aa > 2
- Ba < - 6 or a > 2
- C- 6 < a < 2
- Da < 2
Correct answer
A. a > 2
Step-by-step solution
Coefficient of x 2 is + v e , so parabola is opening upward. 1 lies between the roots ⇒ f 1 < 0 ⇒ 1 − a ⋅ 2 + 3 < 0 ⇒ 2 a > 4 ⇒ a > 2
