LESSONS IN ALGEBRA. XXXIV. 



ADFECTED QUADRATIC EQUATIONS (continued). 

 PROM tho principles that have been laid down in the preceding 

 lesson we may also deduce 



OTHEIl METHODS OF COMPLETING THK SQUARE. 



Multiply the equation by 16 times the co-efficient of the highest 

 oower of the unknown quantity, and add to both sides 4 times 

 the square of tlw co-efficient of the lowest power. 



And universally, multiplying the equation by the product oj 

 any square number, as n ! , into the co-efficient of the highest 

 power, and adding to both sides the square of half the root of 

 this number into the square of the co-efficient of the lowest power, 

 vill render it a complete square. 



EXAMPLES. 



1. Take tho equation r* - 3x = 4. 



Multiplying by 16, etc., 16**- 48* 4- 35 64 + 36 = 100. 

 By evolution and trans- 

 position, = 4, or 1. 



2. Take the equation ox* -f- ex = d. 



Multiplying by n*a, etc., n'o V + n'acx + !~ = *ad -f ,
