Explanation:

Shortest way to solve this question is to find the factors of the given expression.

The given expression is (x² + 13).

Now we have to factorize it.

(x² + 13) = x² + (√13)²

= x² + [-(i)²√(13)²] [Since i = √(-1)]

= x² - (i√13)²

= (x - i√3)(x + i√3) [Since (a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b)]-by-
