To form a quadratic equation, let α and β be the two roots.
Let us assume that the required equation be ax<span>22</span> + bx + c = 0 (a ≠ 0).
According to the problem, roots of this equation are α and β.
Therefore,
α + β = - <span><span>ba</span><span>ba</span></span> and αβ = <span><span>ca</span><span>ca</span></span>.
Now, ax<span>22</span> + bx + c = 0
⇒ x<span>22</span> + <span><span>ba</span><span>ba</span></span>x + <span><span>ca</span><span>ca</span></span> = 0 (Since, a ≠ 0)
⇒ x<span>22</span> - (α + β)x + αβ = 0, [Since, α + β = -<span><span>ba</span><span>ba</span></span> and αβ = <span><span>ca</span><span>ca</span></span>]
⇒ x<span>22</span> - (sum of the roots)x + product of the roots = 0
⇒ x<span>22</span> - Sx + P = 0, where S = sum of the roots and P = product of the roots ............... (i)
Formula (i) is used for the formation of a quadratic equation when its roots are given.
Given the roots: (-1+-i)
where; i=sqrt(-1)
Thus, the answer is (2x)
You can also do checking to verify if x^2+2x+2 will have roots equal to (-1+-i)
