I was struggling with this problem:
$$100^2=x^2+ left( frac100x100+x right)^2$$
It came up when i was developing a solution to a geometry problem. I've already checked in Mathematica and the solution is right, according to the answer. The answer needs to be a real positive number because it's a measure of a segment.
I've tried factoring, manipulating algebraically, but i couldn't solve the resulting 4th degree polynomial. I appreciate if someone could help me. Thanks!

WA tell us that the positive root is
$$
50 (-1 + sqrt 2 + sqrt2 sqrt 2 - 1) approx 88.320
$$
WA also tells us that the minimal polynomial of this number over $mathbb Q$ is
$$
x^4 + 200 x^3 + 10000 x^2 - 2000000 x - 100000000
$$
and so there is no simpler answer.
On the other hand, substituting $x=50u$ in the minimal polynomial gives
$$
6250000 (u^4 + 4 u^3 + 4 u^2 - 16 u - 16)
$$
Now this can factored into two reasonably looking quadratics:
$$
u^4 + 4 u^3 + 4 u^2 - 16 u - 16 =
(u^2 + (2 + 2 sqrt 2) u + 4 sqrt 2 + 4)
(u^2 + (2 - 2 sqrt 2) u - 4 sqrt 2 + 4)
$$
But all this is in hindsight...

Multiplying both sides by $(100+x)^2$, we get
$$
100^2(100+x)^2=x^2(100+x)^2+ 100^2x^2\
Rightarrow100^2[(100+x+x)(100+x-x)]=100^2x^2\
Rightarrow100(100+2x)=x^2\
Rightarrow x^2-200x-10000=0.
$$
You are then able to solve it. The positive root is $100(1+sqrt2)$.

Multiplying both sides by $(100+x)^2$, we get
$$
100^2(100+x)^2=x^2(100+x)^2+ 100^2x^2\
Rightarrow100^2[(100+x+x)(100+x-x)]=100^2x^2\
Rightarrow100(100+2x)=x^2\
Rightarrow x^2-200x-10000=0.
$$
You are then able to solve it. The positive root is $100(1+sqrt2)$.
