If $x^2-6x+1=0$, then find the value of $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}$.
Given: Quadratic equation: $x^2-6x+1=0$.
To do: To find the value of $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}$.
Solution:
As given $x^2-6x+1=0$
$\Rightarrow x^2=6x-1$ ....... $( i)$
Put this value in $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}$
$=( 6x-1)+\frac{1}{( 6x-1)}$
$=\frac{( 6x-1)^2+1}{( 6x-1)}$
$=\frac{36x^2-12x+1+1}{( 6x-1)}$
$=\frac{36x^2-12x+2}{6x-1}$
$=\frac{36x^2}{( 6x-1)}-\frac{2( 6x-1)}{( 6x-1)}$
$=\frac{36( 6x-1)}{( 6x-1)}-\frac{( 6x-1)}{( 6x-1)}$
$=36-2$
$=34$
Thus, $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}=34$.
