Method: مربع كامل. Verified step-by-step solution with our free AI math solver.
Problem

x2+2x+1=0x^2 + 2x + 1 = 0

Step-by-step solution

  1. تعرّف على x2+2x+1x^2 + 2x + 1 بأنه ثلاثي حدود مربع كامل يطابق (a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 حيث a=xa = x، b=1b = 1.

  2. حلّل إلى عوامل: (x+1)2=0(x + 1)^2 = 0.

  3. خذ الجذر التربيعي للطرفين: x+1=0x + 1 = 0.

  4. حلّ: x=1x = -1جذر مكرر (التعددية 2).

Answer

x=1(double root)x = -1 \quad \text{(double root)}
