1. [C]
If x1(x – x2)2 + (x – x1)2x2 = 0
x2(x1 + x2) – 4xx1x2 + x1x2 (x1 + x2) = 0
D = 16(x1x2)2 – 4x1x2(x1 + x2)2 > 0
( x1x2 < 0)
The product of roots (x1x2) is negative.
Thus, The roots are real and of opposite signs.

Equation x2 – 2x + 3 = 0
Put x = Then 2 – 2 + 3 = 0
So, 2 = (2 – 3)
3 = (22 – 3)
 P = 3 – 32 + 5 – 2
 P = (22 – 3) – 32 + 5 – 2
P = –2 + 2 – 2 = +3 – 2 = 1
Similarly Q = (22 – 2) – 2 +  + 5
Q = 2 – 2 + 5 = –3 + 5 = 2
Now, sum of roots (P) = 1 + 2 = 3
Product of root Q = 2
Equation is x2 – 3x + 2 = 0

Given, ,  are the roots of x2 – 2x + 4 = 0
+=2 ...(i)
and  = 4 ...(ii)
Now,  –  = (  )2  4
= 4  4  4  12   –  = 2 3i ...(iii)

The equation is
x3–(3+ 2 3 )x2 + (5 + 4 3 )x –(3 + 2 3 ) = 0
Clearly, x = 1 is the root of above equation,
So, the given equation may be written as
(x –1) [x2 – (2 + 2 3 ) x + (3 + 2 3 )] = 0

(x –1). (x – 3 ). (x – (2 + 3 )) = 0

x = 1, 3,2+ 3
It means,
tan A = 1, tan B= 3 , tan c = 2 + 3
Thus, A = 45°, B = 60°, C = 75°
