The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem, we need to analyze the quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) where \( a > 0 \) and the roots are \( \sec^2 \theta \) and \( \csc^2 \theta \). ### Step 1: Sum and Product of Roots The sum of the roots \( \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta \) can be expressed using the identity: \[ \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta = \frac{1}{\cos^2 \theta} + \frac{1}{\sin^2 \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta} \] The product of the roots \( \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta \) is given by: \[ \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta = \frac{1}{\cos^2 \theta} \cdot \frac{1}{\sin^2 \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta} \] ### Step 2: Relating to Coefficients From Vieta's formulas, we know: - The sum of the roots \( \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta = -\frac{b}{a} \) - The product of the roots \( \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta = \frac{c}{a} \) ### Step 3: Setting Up the Equations From the above relationships, we can set up the following equations: 1. \( \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta = -\frac{b}{a} \) 2. \( \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta = \frac{c}{a} \) ### Step 4: Finding \( b + c = 0 \) From the sum of the roots, we have: \[ -\frac{b}{a} = \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta \] From the product of the roots: \[ \frac{c}{a} = \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta \] We can express \( b \) and \( c \) in terms of \( a \): - \( b = -a(\sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta) \) - \( c = a(\sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta) \) Now, substituting these into the equation \( b + c = 0 \): \[ -a(\sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta) + a(\sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ a(\sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta - (\sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta)) = 0 \] Since \( a > 0 \), we have: \[ \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta = \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta \] Thus, \( b + c = 0 \) holds true. ### Step 5: Discriminant Condition For the quadratic equation to have real roots, the discriminant must be non-negative: \[ b^2 - 4ac \geq 0 \] Substituting \( b = -c \) into the discriminant gives: \[ (-c)^2 - 4ac \geq 0 \implies c^2 - 4ac \geq 0 \implies c(c - 4a) \geq 0 \] This implies that either \( c \geq 0 \) and \( c - 4a \geq 0 \) or \( c \leq 0 \) and \( c - 4a \leq 0 \). ### Step 6: Analyzing \( c \geq 4a \) From the previous step, we can conclude that: \[ c \geq 4a \] is a valid condition. ### Step 7: Evaluating \( 4a + b \geq 0 \) Substituting \( b = -c \) into \( 4a + b \): \[ 4a - c \geq 0 \implies c \leq 4a \] This contradicts our previous result that \( c \geq 4a \). Thus, \( 4a + b \geq 0 \) does not hold. ### Conclusion The conditions that must hold true are: - \( b + c = 0 \) - \( b^2 - 4ac \geq 0 \) - \( c \geq 4a \) Thus, the valid options are: - **a. \( b + c = 0 \)** - **b. \( b^2 - 4ac \geq 0 \)** - **c. \( c \geq 4a \)**

To solve the given problem, we need to analyze the quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) where \( a > 0 \) and the roots are \( \sec^2 \theta \) and \( \csc^2 \theta \). ### Step 1: Sum and Product of Roots The sum of the roots \( \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta \) can be expressed using the identity: \[ \sec^2 \theta + \csc^2 \theta = \frac{1}{\cos^2 \theta} + \frac{1}{\sin^2 \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta} \] The product of the roots \( \sec^2 \theta \cdot \csc^2 \theta \) is given by: ...
