Rewrite the equation by completing the square.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Once you complete the square, the simplified version of this equation is

(2x - 1)^2= 0

If you want to solve for x, subtract 1 and divide by 2.

x = 0.5

What is the other square root of 119 + 120i?

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$\sqrt{119+120 i}=\pm (12.24+i 4.90)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

z = 119 + 120 i

Let $\sqrt{119+120 i}=p+iq$

Squaring both sides

$119+120 i=p^2-q^2+2ipq$

Comparing real and imaginary part

Re(LHS)=Re(RHS)

$119=p^2-q^2$ ...........................(1)

comparing Im(LHS)=Im(RHS)

120=2pq

$q=\frac{60}{p}$

Substitute q in 1

$119=p^2-(\frac{60}{p})^2$

$p^4-119p^2-(68)^2=0$

Let $x=p^2$

$x^2-119x-4624=0$

$x=\dfrac{119\pm \sqrt{119^2+4\times 4624}}{2}$

$x=\frac{119\pm 180.71}{2}$

we take only Positive value because $p^2=x$

x=149.85

$p^2=149.85$

thus $p=\pm 12.24$

$q=\pm 4.90$

thus,

$\sqrt{119+120 i}=\pm (12.24+i 4.90)$
