Factorize the following .

Solution

Find roots using quadratic formula:z=6±36522=6±162=6±4i2=3±2iTherefore:z2+6z+13=(z(3+2i))(z(32i))=(z+32i)(z+3+2i)\begin{aligned} & \boxed{\text{Find roots using quadratic formula:}} \\ \\ & z = \frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{36 - 52}}{2} = \frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{-16}}{2} = \frac{-6 \pm 4i}{2} = -3 \pm 2i \\ \\ & \boxed{\text{Therefore:}} \\ \\ & z^2 + 6z + 13 = (z - (-3 + 2i))(z - (-3 - 2i)) \\ \\ & = (z + 3 - 2i)(z + 3 + 2i) \end{aligned}
