tsE BASED QUESTIONS
When you kick a soccer ball (or shoot an arrow, fire a missile or throw a stone) it goes up
into the air and comes down again following the path of a parabola.
A parabola is the set of points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed straight line
and a fixed point. Quadratic polynomial representing a parabola is ax 2 +bx + c.
When a is positive, the parabola opens upward and the vertex is the minimum value. On
the other hand, if a is negative, the graph opens downward and the vertex is the
maximum value. Answer the following questions based on the parabola:

~ According to the graph given, the product of the zeroes of the polynomial will
V be____, if c is positive.
(i) Cannot be determined (ii) Zero
(iii) Negative (iv) Positive
Ans: iii) negative

18) Zeroes of a polynomial can be determined graphically. Number of zeroes of a polynomial

is equal to no. of points where the graph of polynomial:
(i) intersects Y-axis (ii) intersects X-axis
(iii) intersects Y-axis or intersects X-axis (iv) none of these
Ans: ii) intersects X-axis

19) If graph of a polynomial does not intersect the x-axis but intersects Y-axis in one point,
then no. of zeroes of the polynomial is equal to
(i) 0 (ii) l
(iii) 0 or l (iv) none of these
Ans: i) 0

20) If the polynomial -x 2 - 2x + (7p + 3) represents the parabola above, if (-4) is a zero
of it, then the value of p is:
(i) l (ii) 2
(iii) 3 - (iv) 4
Ans: iii) 3

21) The zeroes of the quadratic polynomial 3x2 - 48 are:

(i) both negative (ii) one positive and one negative
(iii) bl>th positive (iv) both equal
Ans: ii ) one positive and one negative
