Solve x^4 +4 - ScanMath

Evaluate

x^{4} + 4

To find the roots of the expression,set the expression equal to 0

x^{4} + 4 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

x^{4} = 0 - 4

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

x^{4} = - 4

Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots

x = \pm 4 - 4

Simplify the expression

More Steps

x = \pm (1 + i)

Separate the equation into 2 possible cases

x = 1 + i x = - 1 - i

Solution

x_{1} = - 1 - i, x_{2} = 1 + i
