Question

Solve the following quadratic equations by factorization: √2x²-3x-2√2=0

Answer 1

SOLUTION :  

Given :√2x² - 3x - 2√2 = 0

√2x² - 4x + x - 2√2 = 0

[ 4 × 1 = 4 & - 4 +1 = - 3]

√2x(x - 2√2) + 1(x - 2√2) = 0

(√2x + 1) (x - 2√2) = 0

√2x + 1 = 0   or  x - 2√2 = 0  

√2x = - 1  or  x = 2√2

x =  - 1/√2  or  x = 2√2

Hence, the roots of the quadratic equation √2x² - 3x - 2√2 = 0 are - 1/√2  &  2√2 .

★★ METHOD TO FIND SOLUTION OF a quadratic equation by FACTORIZATION METHOD :

Answer 2

----Hey Mate----

Using quadratic formula ,we get

$d = b {}^{2} - 4ac$
$d= ( - 3) {}^{2} - 4( \sqrt{2} )( - 2 \sqrt{2} )$
$d = 9 + 4(4) = 9 + 16 = 25$

Now, we will get the value in both the positive and negative format.

$\frac{3 + 5}{2 \sqrt{2} } = \frac{8}{2 \sqrt{2} } = 2 \sqrt{2}$

$\frac{3 - 5}{2 \sqrt{2} } = \frac{ - 2}{2 \sqrt{2} } = \frac{ - 1}{ \sqrt{2} }$

Hence, the value of X is
$2 \sqrt{2}$

OR

$\frac{ - 1}{ \sqrt{2} }$
