A quadratic polynomial with two distinct roots has one real root. Then, the other root is

A

not necessarily real, if the coefficients are real `

B

always imaginary

C

always real

D

real, if the cosfficients are real

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
We know that, if a quadratic polynomial with two distinct root has one real root, then
`b^(2) - 4 ac gt 0 `
Then other root will always real.
