Graphical method of solving a Quadratic Equation
Let us solve the equation x2 4 = 0 graphically,
x2 4 = 0
x2 = 4
let y = x2 = 4
y = x2
and y = 4
153
y = x2
x=0
x=1
x=2
x = 1
x = 2
y = 02
y = 12
y = 22
y = (1)2
y = (2)2
y=0
y=1
y=4
y=1
y=4
x = +2
or
x = 2
3 = 1.7
x = 1.7
or
x = + 1.7
Example 2 : Draw a graph of y = x2 and y = 2-x and hence solve the equation
x2 + x 2 = 0
Step 1: Form the table of
corresponding values of
x and y satisfying the
equation y = x2
