Solve the following quadratic equations by factorization:\(\sqrt{2}x^{2}-3x-2\sqrt{2}= 0\)

Answer»

In factorization, we write the middle term of the quadratic equation either as a sum of two numbers or difference of two numbers such that the equation can be factorized.

\(\sqrt{2}x^{2}-3x-2\sqrt{2}=0\)

⇒ √2x2 – 4x + x – 2√2 = 0 

⇒ √2x(x – 2√2) + (x – 2√2) = 0 

⇒ (√2x + 1)(x – 2√2) = 0 

⇒ x = -1/√2, 2√2
