If the difference between the roots of the equation `x^2+a x+1=0` is less then `sqrt(5)` , then find the set of possible value of `adot`

A

`(-3,3)`

B

`(-3,oo)`

C

`(3,oo)`

D

`(-oo,-3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`alpha+beta=-a`
`|alpha-beta|ltsqrt(5)implies(alpha-beta)^(2)lt5`
`impliesa^(2)-4lt5impliesa epsilon(-3,3)`
