if one zero is irrational, the other 0 is also irrational.

Answer:

The other zero is also  irrational. ( the complex conjugate of the first zero)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a quadratic equation as:

[tex]ax^2+bx+5=0[/tex]

where a,b and c are rational numbers.

Also it is given that the quadratic has 2 distinct zeros and one of it's zero is irrational.

" We know that for a polynomial equation with rational coefficients if it has one irrational zero then the conjugate pair of that zero is also an zero of the same polynomial equation "

Hence, in this case it is a quadratic equation such that one of it's zero is irrational, hence the other zero is also irrational.
