What are the roots of the equation x^2+18x+90=0x
2
+18x+90=0 in simplest a+bia+bi form?

Sagot :

[tex]x^2 +18x +90 = 0\\\\\text{Apply quadratic formula,}~~ x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a} \\\\\text{In this case, a = 1 , b = 18 and c = 90.}\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{-18 \pm \sqrt{18^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 90}}{2(1)}\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{-18 \pm \sqrt{-36}}2\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{-18 \pm 6i}2\\\\\implies x= -\dfrac{18}2 \pm \dfrac{6i}2\\\\\implies x= -9 \pm 3i[/tex]
