Vedclass · Answer

(C) Given equation is $(p - q){x^2} + (q - r)x + (r - p) = 0$. Notice that the sum of the coefficients is $(p - q) + (q - r) + (r - p) = 0$. If the sum of the coefficients of a quadratic equation $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ is $0$,then $x = 1$ is always one of the roots. Let the roots be $\alpha$ and $\beta$. We know that the product of the roots $\alpha \beta = \frac{c}{a}$. Here,$\alpha = 1$,so $1 	imes \beta = \frac{r - p}{p - q}$. Therefore,the roots are $1$ and $\frac{r - p}{p - q}$.

The roots of the given equation $(p - q){x^2} + (q - r)x + (r - p) = 0$ are
