Hello.
If their sum and multiplication is given, the quadratic equation will be
⇒x² - (sum of roots)x + (multiplication of roots) = 0
But we don't know multiplication of roots, yet
To solve, let two roots be α, β.
⇒Then, α+β=1 and α²+β²=13.
If we square α+β=1, we get α²+β²+2αβ=1.
Now, by comparison with α²+β²=13, we can observe that 2αβ=-12.
⇒Therefore, multiplication of roots is -6.
Here is our answer. Hope you enjoyed.
⇒Therefore, the quadratic equation is x²-x-6=0.

Given; the sum of roots of 1 and sum of squares roots of 13
To Find; The quadratic equation
Solution; Let the roots be α and β
α+β=1
β=1-α
α²+β²=13
Observing this we get α=3 and β=-2
Product of roots= -6
Equation x²-Sx+P= x²-x-6
Hence the quadratic equation is x²-x-6
