Question
Find the roots
a1=−2,a2=2
Alternative Form
a1≈−1.414214,a2≈1.414214
Evaluate
a2−2
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
a2−2=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
a2=0+2
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
a2=2
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
a=±2
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
a=2a=−2
Solution
a1=−2,a2=2
Alternative Form
a1≈−1.414214,a2≈1.414214
