IT IS EASY!!
x2+2x1=0 { * COMPARING WITH *
ax2+bx+c
** we see **
a=1,b=2,c=1
by splitting the middle term....
* WE GET,
PRODUCT=ca=11=1
SUM = 2
*
therefore
x2+x+x1=0
x(x1)+(x1)=0
(x+1)(x1)=0

x=1.

Explanation:

This equation can be solved by factorization.

x2+2x1=0

1(x22x+1)=0

x22x+1=0

x2xx+1=0

x(x1)1(x1)=0

(x1)(x1)=0

Now,
x1=0

Therefore, x=1.
