This paper explores generalizations of the Goemans-Williamson randomization technique. It establishes a simple equivalence of binary linear feasibility problems and max-cut problems and presents an analysis of the semidefinite max-cut relaxation for the case of a single linear equation. Numerical examples for feasible random binary problems indicate that the randomization technique is efficient when the number of linear equations is large.
