Question
1. One solution of al-Khwarizmi Solve r + 12x = 85 by drawing the square shown. The area of the four white rectangles and the yellow square is r² + 12x. We then set this expression equal to 85 to get the equation
12 + 12r = 85 . If we add the four blue squares, we will have a larger square of known area. Complete the solution.
