The correct Answer is:
To solve the quadratic equation \( 4x^2 - 4a^2x + (a^4 - b^4) = 0 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the coefficients The given quadratic equation is in the standard form \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \). Here, - \( a = 4 \) - \( b = -4a^2 \) - \( c = a^4 - b^4 \) ### Step 2: Factor the quadratic equation We can rewrite \( c \) using the difference of squares: \[ a^4 - b^4 = (a^2 - b^2)(a^2 + b^2) \] Thus, the equation becomes: \[ 4x^2 - 4a^2x + (a^2 - b^2)(a^2 + b^2) = 0 \] ### Step 3: Rewrite the middle term We need to factor the quadratic. We can break the middle term \( -4a^2x \) into two parts that will help us factor the equation: \[ -4a^2x = -2a^2x - 2a^2x \] Now we can rewrite the equation: \[ 4x^2 - 2a^2x - 2a^2x + (a^2 - b^2)(a^2 + b^2) = 0 \] ### Step 4: Group the terms Now, we can group the terms: \[ (4x^2 - 2a^2x) + (-2a^2x + (a^2 - b^2)(a^2 + b^2)) = 0 \] Factoring out common terms: \[ 2x(2x - a^2) - 2a^2(2x - (a^2 - b^2)) = 0 \] ### Step 5: Factor further Now we can factor out \( (2x - (a^2 - b^2)) \): \[ (2x - (a^2 - b^2))(2x - (a^2 + b^2)) = 0 \] ### Step 6: Set each factor to zero Now we can set each factor equal to zero to find the roots: 1. \( 2x - (a^2 - b^2) = 0 \) 2. \( 2x - (a^2 + b^2) = 0 \) ### Step 7: Solve for \( x \) From the first equation: \[ 2x = a^2 - b^2 \implies x = \frac{a^2 - b^2}{2} \] From the second equation: \[ 2x = a^2 + b^2 \implies x = \frac{a^2 + b^2}{2} \] ### Final Solution The roots of the quadratic equation \( 4x^2 - 4a^2x + (a^4 - b^4) = 0 \) are: \[ x = \frac{a^2 - b^2}{2} \quad \text{and} \quad x = \frac{a^2 + b^2}{2} \]

To solve the quadratic equation \( 4x^2 - 4a^2x + (a^4 - b^4) = 0 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the coefficients The given quadratic equation is in the standard form \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \). Here, - \( a = 4 \) - \( b = -4a^2 \) - \( c = a^4 - b^4 \) ...
