  1. We know that the format of a quadratic polynomial is [tex] \normalsize \pink {\tt {{x}^{2} + (\alpha + \beta)x + (\alpha(\beta)}}[/tex]

    where, alpha and beta are the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial.

    Given, zero are : √5

    Sum of the zeroes = 4

    Another zero = 4 – √5

    Total zeroes of the quadratic polynomial are: √5 and 4 – √5

    So, the required polynomial is given below:

    [tex]\large\pink{\mathtt{x² \: + 4x \: + \: 4√5 \: – \: √5}}[/tex]
