    Directions: Each of these questions contains two statements: Assertion [A] and Reason [R]. Each of these questions also has four alternative choices, any one of which is the correct answer. You have to select one of the codes [a], [b], [c] and [d] given below.
    Assertion [A] If m and n are the zeroes of the polynomial \[3{{x}^{2}}+11x-4\], then \[12\left( {{m}^{2}}+{{n}^{2}} \right)+145mn=0\]
    Reason [R] If \[\alpha \] and \[\beta \]are the zeroes of the polynomial\[a{{x}^{2}}+bx+c\], then
    \[\frac{\alpha }{\beta }+\frac{\beta }{\alpha }=\frac{{{b}^{2}}}{ac}+2\]

    A) A is true, R is true; R is a correct explanation for A.

    B) A is true, R is true; R is not a correct explanation for A.

    C) A is true; R is False.

    D) A is false; R is true.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let\[f\left( x \right)=3{{x}^{2}}+11x-4\]
                \[=3{{x}^{2}}+12x-x-4\]
                \[=3x\left( x+4 \right)-1\left( x+4 \right)\]
                \[=\left( 3x-1 \right)\left( x+4 \right)\]
    Let       \[m=\frac{1}{3}\]
    And     \[n=-4\]
                \[12\left( {{m}^{2}}+{{n}^{2}} \right)+145\,mn\]
                \[=12\left( \frac{1}{9}+16 \right)+145\times \left( \frac{1}{3} \right)\times \left( -4 \right)\]
                \[=12\left( \frac{1+144}{9} \right)-\frac{145\times 4}{3}\]
                \[=\frac{12\times 145}{9}-\frac{145\times 4}{3}=0\]
    Given, a and p are roots of \[a{{x}^{2}}+by+c\]
    \[\therefore \,\,\alpha +\beta =\frac{-b}{a},\,\alpha \beta =\frac{c}{a}\]
    \[\therefore \,\,\frac{\alpha }{\beta }+\frac{\beta }{\alpha }=\frac{{{\alpha }^{2}}+{{\beta }^{2}}}{\alpha \beta }=\frac{{{\left( \alpha +\beta  \right)}^{2}}-2\alpha \beta }{\alpha \beta }\]
                \[=\frac{{{\left( \alpha +\beta  \right)}^{2}}}{\alpha \beta }-2=\frac{{{b}^{2}}}{ac}-2\]
    Hence, Assertion is true but Reason is false.
