1.Let a,b be the roots of the equation x^2 + px + q = 1 .........(*) where p and q are real constants.
Find, in terms of p and q,
(a) ( a^2 - b - 1)(b^2 - a - 1)
(b) If the square of one roots of (*) minus the other root equals 1,use (a) or otherwise ,to show that q^2 - 3(p - 1)q + ( p -1 )^2( p + 1 ) = 0 ..........(**).
