<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>It's a polynomial with a value of zero. There exist polynomials of variable power 2, 1, and 0 terms. A quadratic equation is an equation with one statement in which the degree of the parameter is a maximum of 2.
The expression is x² + x.
Then the constant should be added to form a perfect square trinomial.
Then the constant will be
The square of the half of the coefficient of the variable x is to be added to make a perfect square.
Then the constant will be 1/4.
Then the perfect square will be
