Dear Members of the Indology list,

In order to illustrate an article of vulgarization, I am looking for an example of how an "equation of the second degree" is handled in a Sanskrit text, I mean by putting above each other the corresponding coefficients of the square (yaava), the unknown (yaa) and the number (ruu) of the two members. Of course, I have seen this in many editions, but I am especially looking for an example from a manuscript, preferentially from Brahmagupta or Bhaaskara II.

Thank you for your help,
