Yes. Quite often, if you don't, you'll lose solutions. That is, the transformed equation - after taking square roots - will have less solutions than the original equation.

A quadratic equation.


Can the answer to a quadratic equation be a decimal?

Yes. You can calculate the two roots of a quadratic equation by using the quadratic formula, and because there are square roots on the quadratic formula, and if the radicand is not a perfect square, so the answer to that equation has decimal.

How you find the solution of a quadratic equation by graphing its quadratic equation?

When you graph the quadratic equation, you have three possibilities... 1. The graph touches x-axis once. Then that quadratic equation only has one solution and you find it by finding the x-intercept. 2. The graph touches x-axis twice. Then that quadratic equation has two solutions and you also find it by finding the x-intercept 3. The graph doesn't touch the x-axis at all. Then that quadratic equation has no solutions. If you really want to find the solutions, you'll have to go to imaginary solutions, where the solutions include negative square roots.

Is a square root function the inverse function of a quadratic function?

Yes, the square root function is considered the inverse of a quadratic function, but only when the quadratic function is restricted to a specific domain. For example, the function ( f(x) = x^2 ) is a quadratic function, and its inverse, ( f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt{x} ), applies when ( x ) is non-negative (i.e., restricting the domain of the quadratic to ( x \geq 0 )). Without this restriction, the inverse would not be a function since a single output from the quadratic can correspond to two inputs.
