c] Solve the quadratic equation a x 2 + b x + c = 0 using perfect square method.
Now we will see a few quadratic equations using the formula method.
a) Solve the quadratic equation x 2 - 4 x - 21 = 0.
Solution:
1) Comparing x 2 - 4 x - 21 = 0 with a x 2 + b x + c = 0 we get,
a = 1, b = - 4, c = - 21
= (- 4 )2 - 4 (1) ( - 21)
= 16 + 84
= 100
A few more problems on Quadratic Equations related to factors will be discussed in the next Blog.
