Description

This example demonstrates solving a simplified form of a quadratic equation. The equation is in the form ax² = c, where the linear term (bx) is absent. This simplification allows for a straightforward solution by isolating x² and then taking the square root of both sides. The process is more direct than using the quadratic formula, making it easier to solve mentally or with minimal calculations. This method highlights the importance of recognizing special forms of quadratic equations for efficient problem-solving.
