Answer:

The error is in line iii

And the correct solution is;


4c^2+1=d

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation;


c=(1)/(2)\sqrt[]{d-1}

Solving for d, we have;

multiply through by 2 to get;


2c=\sqrt[]{d-1}

then we will square both sides;


\begin{gathered} (2c)^2=d-1 \\ 4c^2=d-1 \end{gathered}

Adding 1 to both sides;


4c^2+1=d

Therefore;

The error is in line iii

And the correct solution is;


4c^2+1=d
