Check whether the following are quadratic equations:
x– 2x = (–2) (3 – x)

R.H.S. = (–2) (3 – x) = – 6 + 2x
∴ x2 – 2x = – 6 + 2x
⇒ x2 – 2x + 6 – 2x = 0
⇒ x2 – 4x + 6 = 0
∵ It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a = 1,b = –4, c = 6.
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

Check whether the following are quadratic equations:
(x – 3) (2x + 1) = x(x + 5)

L.H.S. = (x – 1) (2x + 1)
= 2x2 + x – 2x – 1
= 2x2 – x – 1
R.H.S. = x(x + 5) = x2 + 5x
∴ 2x2 – x – 1 = x2 + 5x
⇒ 2x2 – x2 – x – 5x – 1 = 0
⇒ x2 – 6x – 1 = 0
∵ It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a = 1, b = –b, c = –1.
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

Check whether the following are quadratic equations:
(x + 1)2 = 2(x – 3)


L.H.S. = (x + 1)= x2 + 2x + 1
R.H.S. = 2(x – 3) = 2x –6
∴ 6x2 + 2x + 1 = 2x - 6
⇒ x2 + 2x + 1–2x + 6 = 0
⇒ x2+ 7 = 0
∵ It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a = 1,b = 0, c = 7.
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.

L.H.S. = (x–2) (x + 1)
= x2 – x – 2

∴ x2 – x – 2 = x2 + 2x – 3
⇒ – x –2 – 2x + 3 = 0
⇒ – 3x + 1 = 0
∵ It is not of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.
Hence, the given equation is not a quadratic equation.

Check whether the following are quadratic equations:
(2x –1) (x–3) = (x + 5)(x–1)

L.H.S. = (2x – 1) (x – 3)
= 2x2 – 6x– + 3
= 2x2 – 7x + 3
R.H.S. = (x + 5) (a – 1)
= x2 + 5x – x – 5
= x2 + 4x – 5
∴2x2 – 7x + 3 = x2 + 4x – 5
⇒ 2x2 –x2-7x–4x+ 3 + 5 = 0
⇒ x2 – 11x + 8 = 0
∵ It is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a = 1, b = –11, c = 8.
Hence, the given equation is a quadratic equation.
