Find roots of polynomial $$ p(x) = 1-x^2 $$
Answer
The roots of polynomial $ p(x) $ are:
$$ \begin{aligned}x_1 &= 1\\[1 em]x_2 &= -1 \end{aligned} $$Explanation
Step 1:
Write polynomial in descending order
$$ \begin{aligned} 1-x^2 & = 0\\[1 em] -x^2+1 & = 0 \end{aligned} $$Step 2:
The solutions of $ -x^2+1 = 0 $ are: $ x = -1 ~ \text{and} ~ x = 1$.
