Solve by completing the square:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 8x + 13 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+8x + ? = -13 + ?
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 8x + 4^2 = -13 + 4^2
\n" ); document.write( "(x+4)^2 = 3
\n" ); document.write( "x+4 = sqrt3 or x+4 = -sqrt3
\n" ); document.write( "x = -4+sqrt(3) or x = -4-sqrt(3)
\n" ); document.write( "===================
