If x²+2x+k=0 has complex roots, then its determinant (D) is less than 0.
D=b²-4ac
b²-4ac<0
2²-4×1×k<0
4-4k<0
4k>4
k>1
k={2,3,4,5,6,....}

Hi ,

Compare x² + 2x + k = 0 with

ax² + bx + c = 0, we get

a = 1 , b = 2 , c = k ,

Discreaminant ( D ) < 0

[Given Roots are complex ]

D = b² - 4ac < 0

2² - 4 × 1 × k < 0

4 - 4k < 0

- 4k < - 4

k > ( - 4 ) /( - 4 )

k > 1

I hope this helps you.
