If one root of 5x2 + 13x + k = 0 be the reciprocal of the other root then the value of k is

Let the roots of equation be than other root will be


Product of two roots =


Product of the roots =


For the given equation 5x2 + 13x + k = 0


a = 5 b = 13 c = k comparing with ax2 + bx + c = 0


Product of the roots


k = 5
