5.62 Proof: If the numbers satisfy the inequality
then the quadratic trinomials and both have two real roots, and between the roots of each polynomial there is a root of the other polynomial.

[Proof] Let ,
If ,
then
At this point,
This means that, in the Cartesian coordinate system, the intersection point of the two upward-opening parabolas (1) and (2) is below the x-axis. Therefore, each of these two parabolas intersects the x-axis at two points, and between the two roots of each polynomial, there must be a root of the other polynomial. Therefore, the quadratic trinomials and both have two real roots, and between the two roots of each polynomial, there is a root of the other polynomial.

Therefore, each of these two parabolas intersects the x-axis at two points, and between the two intersection points of one parabola with the x-axis, there must be an intersection point of the other parabola with the x-axis. Therefore, the quadratic trinomials and both have two real roots, and between the two roots of each polynomial, there is a root of the other polynomial.
