According to the question, one of the zeros is the reciprocal of the other, so, let us consider one zero to be x. Therefore, the other zero will be 1 / x, and the product of zeros will be 1. For any polynomial of the form ax2+ bx + c = 0, Sum of zeros = - b / a Product of zeroes = c / a Using these results for the equation given in the question (a2 + 9)x2 + 13x  + 6a, we get The product of zeros will be c / a = 6a / (a2+ 9) = 1 ⇒ a2+ 9 = 6a ⇒ a2- 6a + 9 = 0 [rearranging terms] ⇒ a2 – 3a – 3a + 9 = 0 [splitting middle term] ⇒ a (a - 3) -3 (a - 3) = 0 [taking a as common in 1st two terms and - 3 as common in last two terms] ⇒ (a - 3) (a - 3) = 0  ⇒ a = 3 , 3 Hence, the value of a is 3.
