To find the values of \( m \) for which the roots of the equation \( x^2 - mx + 1 = 0 \) are less than unity, we will follow a systematic approach based on the properties of quadratic equations. ### Step 1: Identify the conditions for the roots For the roots of the quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) to be less than a certain value (in this case, unity), we need to satisfy the following conditions: 1. The discriminant \( D \) must be non-negative (i.e., \( D \geq 0 \)). 2. The function evaluated at that value (here \( f(1) > 0 \)). 3. The vertex of the parabola (given by \( -\frac{b}{2a} \)) must be less than that value (here \( -\frac{m}{2} < 1 \)). ...
