let the zeros of the given polynomial ax^2+bx+c be m"alpha" and n"alpha"
m "alpha " + n"alpha" = -b/a
=>"alpha"= -b/a(m+n)------------------(i)
and similarly product of zeros
=> mn"alpha^2"=b/a-------------(ii)
Now,
Putting the value of equation (i) in equation (ii)
You would get the desired answer which is
root m/ root n +root n/root m
=>root b/a
m "alpha " + n"alpha" = -b/a
=>"alpha"= -b/a(m+n)------------------(i)
and similarly product of zeros
=> mn"alpha^2"=b/a-------------(ii)
Now,
Putting the value of equation (i) in equation (ii)
You would get the desired answer which is
root m/ root n +root n/root m
=>root b/a
