Step 1 :Identify the values of a, b, and c. These are the coefficients of the x^2 term, the x term, and the constant term, respectively.
Step 2 :Plug these values into the quadratic formula and simplify: $x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
Step 3 :Substitute a=1, b=-2, and c=4 into the formula.
Step 4 :Simplify: $x=\frac{-(-2) \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4(1)(4)}}{2(1)}$
Step 5 :Simplify further: $x=\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{4(4)}}{2}$
Step 6 :More simplification: $x=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{3}}{3}$
Step 7 :Final answer: $x=\frac{-1 + \sqrt{3}}{3}$ or $x=\frac{-1 - \sqrt{3}}{3}$
