For a quadratic equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0, the discriminant is given by b^2 - 4ac
Thus for a^2 - 2a + 5 = 0,
a = 1, b = -2 and c = 5
b^2 - 4ac = (-2)^2 - 4(1)(5) = 4 - 20 = -16

Answer:
√15/3
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - y² =√5
(x +y)*(x -y) = √5
(x +y) * √3 = √5
x+y = √5 / √3
x +y = √5*√3 / √3*√3
x +y = √15/3
