Question:medium
Form a quadratic equation, one of whose zero is \( 2 + \sqrt{5} \) and the sum of zeros is 4.
Form a quadratic equation, one of whose zero is \( 2 + \sqrt{5} \) and the sum of zeros is 4.
Show Hint
For quadratic equations with real coefficients, if one zero is \( p + \sqrt{q} \), the other zero must be \( p - \sqrt{q} \).
