Question Number 44062 by peter frank last updated on 20/Sep/18

Answered by MJS last updated on 21/Sep/18

roots r_1 , r_2  ⇒ (x−r_1 )(x−r_2 )=0 ⇒ x^2 −(r_1 +r_2 )x+r_1 r_2 =0  in this case  r_1 =2−(√3), r_2 =2+(√3)  (x−2+(√3))(x−2−(√3))=0 ⇒  ⇒ x^2 −4x+1=0

$$\mathrm{roots}\:{r}_{\mathrm{1}} ,\:{r}_{\mathrm{2}} \:\Rightarrow\:\left({x}−{r}_{\mathrm{1}} \right)\left({x}−{r}_{\mathrm{2}} \right)=\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow\:{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\left({r}_{\mathrm{1}} +{r}_{\mathrm{2}} \right){x}+{r}_{\mathrm{1}} {r}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{in}\:\mathrm{this}\:\mathrm{case} \\ $$$${r}_{\mathrm{1}} =\mathrm{2}−\sqrt{\mathrm{3}},\:{r}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{2}+\sqrt{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$\left({x}−\mathrm{2}+\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}\right)\left({x}−\mathrm{2}−\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}\right)=\mathrm{0}\:\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}{x}+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

General formula:  x^2 −(r_1 +r_2 )x+r_1 .r_2 =0

$${General}\:{formula}: \\ $$$${x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\left({r}_{\mathrm{1}} +{r}_{\mathrm{2}} \right){x}+{r}_{\mathrm{1}} .{r}_{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{0} \\ $$
