If secα and cosec α are the roots of the equation x2ax+b=0, then 

a
a2=b(b−2)
b
a2=b(b+2)
c
a2+b2=2b
d
none of these

detailed solution

Correct option is B

It is given that sec αand cosecα are the roots of the equation x2−ax+b=0∴ sec⁡α+cosec⁡α=a and sec⁡αcosec⁡α=b ⇒ sin⁡α+cos⁡α=asin⁡αcos⁡α and sin⁡αcos⁡α=1b ⇒ sin⁡α+cos⁡α=ab and sin⁡αcos⁡α=1b (sin⁡α+cos⁡α)2=1+2sin⁡αcos⁡α ⇒ a2b2=1+23⇒a2=b(b+2)
