the area of the triangle is eqaula to the sqare show that x²-3x-2=0

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of square = area of triangle
[tex]side*side = \dfrac{1}{2}b*h\\\\\\x*x=\dfrac{1}{2}*(x+1)(x+2)\\x^{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}[x*x +x*2+1*x+1*2]\\\\\\x^{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}[x^{2}+2x+x+2]\\\\\\x^{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}[x^{2}+3x+2]\\\\\\Multiply \ both \ sides \ by \ 2\\\\2x^{2}=x^{2}+3x+2\\\\2x^{2}-x^{2}-3x-2 = 0[/tex]
x² - 3x - 2 = 0
