Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) real, irrational and unequal

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\[ \text { Hints: } \begin{aligned} & x^2-2 \sqrt{3}-22=0 \\ & D=12+(4 \times 22)>0 \end{aligned} \] \(\because\) coeffs are irrational, \[ x=\frac{2 \sqrt{3} \pm \sqrt{12+88}}{2} \] \(\therefore\) Roots are irrational, real, unequal.
