← HistoryWhich outcome resulted from Al-Khwarizmi's methodical application of algebraic cancellation (al-jabr) and restoration (al-muqabala) methods in the Islamic Golden Age?
A)Systematic solutions to quadratic equations✓
B)Precise measurement of stellar parallaxes
C)Development of advanced optical lens grinding
D)Accurate prediction of lunar eclipse timings
💡 Explanation
Systematic solutions to quadratic equations were achieved because Al-Khwarizmi's algebraic methods enabled rearrangement and simplification of equations. Therefore, complex mathematical problems could be solved algorithmically, rather than relying solely on geometric methods.
