Question
Show the following quadratic equation by factorization method:
$x^2 + 2x + 2 = 0$

Answer

$x^2 + 2x + 2 = 0$
We will apply discriminant rule,
$\text{x}=\frac{-\text{b}\pm\sqrt{\text{D}}}{2\text{a}}\ ...(\text{A})$
Where $ D = b^2 - 4ac$
$= 2^2 - 4.1.2$
$= 4 - 8$
$= -4$
From (A)
$\text{x}=-\frac{(-2)\pm\sqrt{-4}}{2}$
$=\frac{-2\pm2\text{i}}{2}$
$=-1\pm\text{i}$
$\therefore\text{x}=-1+\text{i},-1-\text{i}$
