Solution :-

x2 + 10ix – 21 = 0

Given: x2 + 10ix – 21 = 0

x2 + 10ix – 21 × 1 = 0

We know, i2 = –1 ⇒ 1 = –i2

By substituting 1 = –i2 in the above equation, we get

x2 + 10ix – 21(–i2) = 0

x2 + 10ix + 21i2 = 0

x2 + 3ix + 7ix + 21i2 = 0

x(x + 3i) + 7i(x + 3i) = 0

(x + 3i) (x + 7i) = 0

x + 3i = 0 or x + 7i = 0

x = –3i or –7i

The roots of the given equation are –3i, –7i
