If \(1-i\) is a root of the equation \(x^2+a x+b=0\) then \(b\) is equal to

  1. A \(1\)
  2. B \(-1\)
  3. C \(-2\)
  4. D \(2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since \(1-i\) is a ront of the equation \(x^2+9 x+b=0\) then another root will be \(1+i\), also, product of roots \(=b\) \[ \begin{array}{rlrl} \Rightarrow & & (1+i)(1-i) & =b \\ \Rightarrow & 1+1 & =b \Rightarrow b=2 \end{array} \]
