Solution
h2−124
Show Solution

Find the roots
h1=−231,h2=231
Alternative Form
h1≈−11.135529,h2≈11.135529
Evaluate
h2×1−124−0
To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0
h2×1−124−0=0
Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same
h2−124−0=0
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
h2−124=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
h2=0+124
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
h2=124
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots
h=±124
