Given quadratic equation :-  2 x2 - x + (1/8) = 0  ........................(1)
 
LHS of above equation can be written in the form " a2 - 2ab + b2  = ( a - b )2  "
 
begin mathsize 14px style 2 space x squared space minus space x space plus space left parenthesis 1 divided by 8 right parenthesis space space equals space open parentheses square root of 2 space x close parentheses squared space minus space open parentheses 2 space square root of 2 space x space cross times fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 square root of 2 end fraction close parentheses space space plus space open parentheses fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 space square root of 2 end fraction close parentheses squared end style
