Given the equation 1/m^2 = 1/m -
1/2.
We need to find the values of m that satisfies the
equation.
Let us get rid of the denominator by multiplying
by 2m^2.
==> 2m^2(1/m^2) = 2m^2(1/m) -
2m^2(1/2)
==> 2 = 2m -
m^2
Now we will combine all terms on the left
side.
==> m^2 - 2m + 2 =
0.
Now we will use the formula to solve for
m.
==> m1= ( 2 + sqrt(4-8) /
2
=
(2+sqrt-4)/2
= (2 +
2i)/2
= 1+
i
==> m2= 1-i
Then
there are no real solution for
m.
However, the equation has a complex
solution.
==> m = { 1+i,
1-i}
