Solve` 2x^2+ax-a^2=0`
उत्तर
`2x^2+ax-a^2=0`
⇒`2x^2+2ax-ax-a^2`
⇒`2x(x+a)-a(x+a)=0`
⇒`(x+a)(2x-a)=0`
⇒`x+a=0 or 2x-a=0`
⇒`x=-a or x=a/2`
Hence, `a and a/2` are the roots of the given equation.

Form a quadratic equation such that one of its roots is 5. Form a quadratic equation for it and write. (For the formation of word problems you can use quantities like age, rupees, or natural numbers.) (Sample solution for the above example is given below students can take another number to form another example)
Solution:
We need one of the solutions of the quadratic equation as 5.
Then we can take another root as any number like a positive or negative number or zero. Here I am taking another root of the quadratic equation as 2.
Then we can form a word problem as below,
Smita is younger than her sister Mita by 3 years (5 – 2 = 3). If the product of their ages is (5 × 2 = 10). Then find their present ages.
Let the age of Mita be x.
Therefore age of Smita = x – 3
By the given condition,
x(x – 3) = 10
x2 – 3x – 10 = 0
In the adjoining fig. `square` ABCD is a trapezium AB || CD and its area is 33 cm2. From the information given in the figure find the lengths of all sides of the `square` ABCD. Fill in the empty boxes to get the solution.
Solution: `square` ABCD is a trapezium.
AB || CD
`"A"(square "ABCD") = 1/2 ("AB" + "CD") xx`______
33 = `1/2 ("x" + 2"x" + 1) xx `______
∴ ______ = (3x + 1) × ______
∴ 3x2 +______ − ______ = 0
∴ 3x(______) + 10(______) = 0
∴ (3x + 10) (______) = 0
∴ (3x + 10) = 0 or ______ = 0
∴ x = `-10/3` or x = ______
But length is never negative.
∴ `"x" ≠ -10/3`
∴ x = ______
AB = ______, CD = ______, AD = BC = ______
