Solve each of the following quadratic equations:
√2x2 + 7x + 5√2 = 0
Using the splitting middle term - the middle term of the general equation is divided in two such values that:
Product = a.c
For the given equation
=
And either of their sum or difference = b
= 7
Thus the two terms are 5 and 2
Sum = 5 + 2 = 7
Product = 5.2 = 10
Hence the roots of equation are
