put x^2=t t^2+3t+2=t^2+2t+t+2=?

surjithayer:

can you complete it?

snowflake0531:

(t+1)(t+2) -> \((x^2+1)(x^2+2)\)

snowflake0531:

oh so \((x^2+2)(x-i)(x+i)\) ?

surjithayer:

now x^2+1=x^2-(-1)=x^2-i^2

snowflake0531:

okokay so A and B?

surjithayer:

similarly x^2+2=x^2-(-2) \[=x^2-(\sqrt{2} \iota)^2\]

snowflake0531:

A and B and D ?_?

surjithayer:

\[=(x+\sqrt{2}\iota)(x-\sqrt{2}\iota)\]

snowflake0531:

okokay thanks o-o
