Answer:

  (x +3)(x -3)(x +2i)(x -2i)

Step-by-step explanation:

The factoring to quadratics makes use of the fact that -36 = (-9)(4).

  x^4 -5x^2 -36

  = x^4 -9x^2 +4x^2 -36

  = x^2(x^2 -9) +4(x^2 -9)

  = (x^2 +4)(x^2 -9)

The form for factoring the difference of squares comes into play here. Of course -4 = (2i)^2.

  = (x^2 -(2i)^2)(x^2 -3^2)

  = (x -2i)(x +2i)(x -3)(x +3) . . . factored to linear terms

Can someone please help me out

On your paper, you wrote down a^2+b^2 = c^2 which is the pythagorean theorem

You are on the right track. You'll use this equation. In this case
a = 36
b = 18
c = 43
The value of a and b can be swapped. The value of c is always the longest side.

Let's see if a^2+b^2 = c^2 is true or not
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
36^2 + 18^2 = 43^2
1296 + 324 = 1849
1620 = 1849
The last equation is false so the first equation is false when a = 36, b = 18 and c = 43

We do NOT have a right triangle so we do NOT have a rectangle

Answer: No, the table is not "square" (ie, have right angles at the corners)
