Solve x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0 - Vidyadip

Question

Solve $x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0$

✓

Answer

Here $x^2 + 3x + 5 = 0$
Comparing the given quadratic equation with $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ we have
a = 1 , b= 3 and c = 5
$\therefore x = \frac{{ - 3 \pm \sqrt {{{(3)}^2} - 4 \times 1 \times 5} }}{{2 \times 1}}$$ = \frac{{ - 3 \pm \sqrt { - 11} }}{2} = \frac{{ - 3 \pm \sqrt {11} i}}{2}$
Thus $x = \frac{{ - 3 + \sqrt {11} i}}{2}$ and $x = \frac{{ - 3 - \sqrt {11} i}}{2}$
