(k22k)+1=0\left(k^{2} - 2 k\right) + 1 = 0
Detail solution
This equation is of the form
a*k^2 + b*k + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
k1=Db2ak_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}
k2=Db2ak_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
a=1a = 1
b=2b = -2
c=1c = 1
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(-2)^2 - 4 * (1) * (1) = 0

Because D = 0, then the equation has one root.
k = -b/2a = --2/2/(1)

k1=1k_{1} = 1
Vieta's Theorem
it is reduced quadratic equation
k2+kp+q=0k^{2} + k p + q = 0
where
p=bap = \frac{b}{a}
p=2p = -2
q=caq = \frac{c}{a}
q=1q = 1
