Question

Question 2 (iii)
Are the following statements ‘True’ or False’? Justify your answer.
iii) If the graph of a polynomial intersects the X-axis at exactly two points, it need not be a quadratic polynomial

Answer 1

iii) True, if the graph of a polynomial intersects the X – axis at exactly two points, then it may or may not be a quadratic polynomial. As a polynomial of degree more than 2 is possible which intersects the X – axis at exactly two points when it has two real roots and other imaginary roots.
