    The zeroes of the polynomial \[f(x)={{x}^{2}}-2\sqrt{2}x-16\] are:

    A) \[\sqrt{2},-\sqrt{2}\]

    B) \[4\sqrt{2},-2\sqrt{2}\]

    C) \[-4\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2}\]

    D) \[4\sqrt{2},2\sqrt{2}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] The zeroes of \[f(x)={{x}^{2}}-2\sqrt{2}x-16\] are given by
    \[f(x)=0\]i.e., \[{{x}^{2}}-2\sqrt{2}\,\,x-16=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{{x}^{2}}-4\sqrt{2}\,\,x+2\sqrt{2}\,\,x-16=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,x(x-4\sqrt{2})+2\sqrt{2}\,(x-4\sqrt{2})=0\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,(x+2\sqrt{2})\,\,(x-4\sqrt{2})=0\Rightarrow \,x=4\sqrt{2}\] or
                                                    \[x=-2\sqrt{2}\]
