Example 1
Solve for x in the equation 5x2 + 12x 2 = 0.
Comparing equation 1.1 above, and substitute
a=5, b=12 and c= 2 into equation 1.2, the
solution is :
X = 12 [(12)2 4(5)( 2)]
2(5)
= 12 13.56

Method of Substitution
We can start by expressing x in terms of y, or y in terms of x.
Let us choose to express x in terms of y, thus from (1)
x = -3y -10

Substituting (3) into (2) , yielding

Method of Elimination
This method looks for a way to eliminate one
of the unknowns.
This can be done by making the constant
factor of that unknown or variable the same in
both equations by multiplying or dividing one
equation by a selected constant:

4x + 3y + 10 = 0
20x + 30y + 5 = 0
(1)
(2)
Divide (2) by 5
4x + 6y + 1 = 0
(3)
Subtract (3) by (1)
3y - 9 = 0
y=3
Substitute the value of y into (1) or (2)
4x + 3(3) + 10 = 0
4x = - 9 - 10
x = - 19

For triangles that are not right-angle, the following two laws
are important in vector algebra introduced in chapter two
later:
Cosine Rule a2 = b2 + c2 2bc cos
b2 = a2 + c2 2ac cos
c2 = a2 + b2 2ab cos
