The correct Answer is:
To solve the given problem step by step, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We need to find the coordinates \((\alpha, \beta)\) such that the circle with diameter formed by the points \((0, 1)\) and \((\alpha, \beta)\) intersects the x-axis at the roots of the equation \(x^2 - 5x + 3 = 0\). ### Step 2: Find the Roots of the Quadratic Equation The roots of the equation \(x^2 - 5x + 3 = 0\) can be found using the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Here, \(a = 1\), \(b = -5\), and \(c = 3\). Calculating the discriminant: \[ b^2 - 4ac = (-5)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 3 = 25 - 12 = 13 \] Now substituting into the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{13}}{2} \] Thus, the roots are: \[ x_1 = \frac{5 + \sqrt{13}}{2}, \quad x_2 = \frac{5 - \sqrt{13}}{2} \] ### Step 3: Equation of the Circle The equation of the circle with diameter endpoints \((0, 1)\) and \((\alpha, \beta)\) can be expressed as: \[ (x - 0)(x - \alpha) + (y - 1)(y - \beta) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ x(x - \alpha) + (y - 1)(y - \beta) = 0 \] ### Step 4: Substitute \(y = 0\) to Find x-intercepts To find where the circle intersects the x-axis, set \(y = 0\): \[ x(x - \alpha) + (0 - 1)(0 - \beta) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ x^2 - \alpha x + \beta = 0 \] ### Step 5: Relate the Coefficients From the quadratic equation \(x^2 - \alpha x + \beta = 0\), we can relate the coefficients to the roots we found earlier: - The sum of the roots \(x_1 + x_2 = \alpha\) - The product of the roots \(x_1 \cdot x_2 = \beta\) Using the roots we calculated: - The sum \(x_1 + x_2 = 5\) (from \(x^2 - 5x + 3 = 0\)) - The product \(x_1 \cdot x_2 = 3\) ### Step 6: Solve for \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) From the relationships: \[ \alpha = 5, \quad \beta = 3 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the coordinates \((\alpha, \beta)\) are: \[ (\alpha, \beta) = (5, 3) \] ---
