    If both the roots of the equations \[a{{x}^{2}}+px+q=0\] and \[b{{x}^{2}}+lx+m=0(a\ne b)\]are common, then

    A) \[pm=lq\]         

    B) \[pq=lm\]

    C) \[{{p}^{2}}l={{m}^{2}}q\]  

    D) \[p{{m}^{2}}=l{{q}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] : Since both roots of given equations \[a{{x}^{2}}+px+q=0\] and \[b{{x}^{2}}+lx+m=0\]are common. \[\therefore \]\[\frac{a}{b}=\frac{p}{l}=\frac{q}{m}\] Taking\[\frac{p}{l}=\frac{q}{m}\Rightarrow pm=lq\].
