Detailed Solution

An equation in the form a x 2 +bx+c=0,a0 is called quadratic equation in one variable x, where a, b, c are constants.
We know that discriminant (D) determines if a given equation is real or not.
D= b 2 4ac If D>0 then equation therefore has two different and real roots.
If D=0 then equation has equal and real roots.
If D<0 then equation has no real roots.
As a result, if the discriminant of a quadratic equation is larger than zero, the roots are real and distinct.
The correct option is (1).
