Alpha + beta = -b/a
= - ( - 3√3) / 2
= 3√3 / 2...............1)
Alpha × beta = C/a
= -5/2.................2)
(Alpha + beta )^2 = Alpha^2 + beta^2 + 2Alpha × beta..
So, Alpha^2 + beta^2 = (Alpha + beta )^2 - 2Alpha × beta............3)
Substitute 1) and 2) in 3)
Alpha^2 + beta^2 = (3√3 / 2)^2 - 2 × - 5/2
= 27 /4+ 5
= 47/4
Hope it helps!!!!!
