Given Quadratic Equation → x² - 10x + 9
For factorising a polynomial of second degree, there are 3 methods which can be followed
- Splitting of middle term
- Applying Quadratic formula (to find roots)
- Completing the square method
Here we apply the first method which is splitting of middle term.
For this find 2 numbers such that:
- Their product is 9
- And their sum is -10
Those 2 numbers which fulfill the above requirement are -9 and -1
So, the given Quadratic equation can be written as:
x² - x - 9x + 9 = 0
⇒ x(x - 1) - 9(x - 1) = 0
⇒ (x - 9) (x - 1) = 0
So, the factors are:
- (x - 9)
- (x - 1)
