The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the given quadratic equations and the conditions for the sides of a triangle. ### Step 1: Identify the Quadratic Equations We have two quadratic equations: 1. \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) 2. \( 5x^2 + 6x + 12 = 0 \) ### Step 2: Find the Discriminant of the Second Equation The discriminant \( D \) of a quadratic equation \( Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0 \) is given by: \[ D = B^2 - 4AC \] For the second equation \( 5x^2 + 6x + 12 = 0 \): - \( A = 5 \) - \( B = 6 \) - \( C = 12 \) Calculating the discriminant: \[ D = 6^2 - 4 \cdot 5 \cdot 12 = 36 - 240 = -204 \] ### Step 3: Analyze the Discriminant Since the discriminant \( D = -204 \) is negative, this means that the second equation has imaginary roots. ### Step 4: Common Root Condition Since both equations have a common root, and the second equation has imaginary roots, it implies that the first equation must also have the same imaginary roots. ### Step 5: Set Up the Ratio Condition For both quadratic equations to have a common root, the coefficients must be in proportion: \[ \frac{a}{5} = \frac{b}{6} = \frac{c}{12} \] Let this common ratio be \( k \). Therefore, we can express \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) as: \[ a = 5k, \quad b = 6k, \quad c = 12k \] ### Step 6: Check the Triangle Inequality For \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) to be the sides of a triangle, they must satisfy the triangle inequality: 1. \( a + b > c \) 2. \( a + c > b \) 3. \( b + c > a \) Let's check the first condition: \[ a + b = 5k + 6k = 11k \] \[ c = 12k \] Now, check if \( a + b > c \): \[ 11k > 12k \] This simplifies to: \[ 11 > 12 \] This is false. ### Step 7: Conclusion Since the triangle inequality is not satisfied, \( a \), \( b \), and \( c \) cannot form a triangle. Therefore, the conclusion is that no such triangle exists. ### Final Answer No such triangle exists. ---
