Given the equation :
9x^2 -6x
+21 = 0
We need to solve by completing the
square.
==> Let us rewrite 21 = 21
+1
==> 9x^2 -6x + 1 + 20 =
0
==> (3x-1)^2 + 20 =
0
==> Now we will move 20 to the right
side.
==> (3x-1)^2 =
-20
Now we will take the square root of both
sides.
==> 3x-1 = sqrt-20 = 2sqrt-5 =
2sqrt5*i
==> 3x-1
=2sqrt5*i
==> 3x = 1+
2sqrt5*i
==> x1 = (1/3) + (2sqrt5)/3
*i
OR :
-(3x-1) =
2sqrt5*i
==> -3x +1 =
2sqrt5*i
==> -3x = -1 +
2sqrt5*i
==> x2 = (1/3) -(2sqrt5)/3
*i
Then we have two
solutions:
x= { (1/3)+2sqrt5/3 *i , (1/3) 8
(2sqrt5/3)*i }
