Question
Decide whether the following equation is quadratic equation or not.
`"y"^2 + 1/"y" = 2`
Solution
`"y"^2 + 1/"y" = 2`
∴ `"y" xx "y"^2 + "y" xx 1/"y" = "y" xx 2` ....[Multiplying both sides by y]
∴ y3 + 1 = 2y
∴ y3 − 2y + 1 = 0
Here y is the only variable and the maximum index of the variable is not 2.
∴ It is not a quadratic equation.

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 = ______
