Open in App
Solution

We know that for any quadratic equation of the form ax2+bx+c=0

x=b±b24ac2a

Given equation is

4x2+4bxa2+b2=0

Hence, substituting the values of a,b and c in the above equation we get,

x=4b±(4b)24×4×(a2+b2)2×4

=4b±16b2+16a216b28

=4b±4a8

=b±a2

So, x=b+a2

or

x=ba2

=b+a2

Hence, these are the values of x.
