Question

x2 + 2x + 5 = 0

Solution

Given: 

\[x^2 + 2x + 5 = 0\]

\[x^2 + 2x + 5 = 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow x^2 + 2x + 1 + 4 = 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow (x + 1 )^2 - (2i )^2 = 0 [(a + b )^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab]\]

\[ \Rightarrow (x + 1 + 2i) (x + 1 - 2i) = 0 [ a^2 - b^2 = (a + b) (a - b)]\]

\[\Rightarrow (x + 1 + 2i) = 0\] or \[(x + 1 - 2i) = 0\]

\[\Rightarrow x = - (1 + 2i)\] or, \[x = - 1 + 2i\]

Hence, the roots of the equation are \[- 1 + 2i \text { and } - 1 - 2i\]
