Solve the following quadratics

13x2 + 7x + 1 = 0

Given 13x2 + 7x + 1 = 0


Recall that the roots of quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a ≠ 0, are given by



Here, a = 13, b = 7 and c = 1






We have i2 = –1


By substituting –1 = i2 in the above equation, we get






Thus, the roots of the given equation are.
