a) Given that, 2(x−1)2=4x22x+1
⇒2(x2+1−2x)=4x2−2x+1
⇒2x2+2−4x=4x2−2x+1
⇒2x2+2x−1=0
Which represents a quadratic equation because it has the quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0,a≠0
b) Given that, 2x−x2=x2+5
⇒2x2−2x+5=0
Which represents a quadratic equation because I has the quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0, a ≠ 0
c) Given that, (√2x+√3)2=3x2−5x
⇒2x2+3√6+x=3x2−5x
⇒x2−(5+2√6)x−3=0
Which also represents a quadratic equation because it has the quadratic form ax2+bx+c=0, a ≠ 0
d) Given that, (x2+2x)2=x4+3+4x2
⇒x4+4x2+4x3=x4+3+4x2
⇒4x3−3=0
Which is not of the form ax2+bx+c=0, a ≠ 0. Thus, the equation is not quadratic. This is a cubic equation.
