Answer :

Ok, so

We can use this method if we have a quadratic equation of the form:

[tex]x^2-c=0[/tex]

When c is a real number. In other words, we can extract the roots if we first isolate the leading term, x².

For example:

Find the roots of the quadratic equation:

[tex]x^2-4=0[/tex]

Notice that all the "x terms" should be in a side of the equation and all the numbers should be in the other side.

This is:

[tex]x^2=4[/tex]

Now, we could apply the square root property:

[tex]x=\pm2[/tex]
