1x=a\left(x-\sqrt{3}\right)a
Multiply both sides of the equation by a.
1x=a^{2}\left(x-\sqrt{3}\right)
Multiply a and a to get a^{2}.
1x=a^{2}x-a^{2}\sqrt{3}
Use the distributive property to multiply a^{2} by x-\sqrt{3}.
1x-a^{2}x=-a^{2}\sqrt{3}
Subtract a^{2}x from both sides.
x-xa^{2}=-\sqrt{3}a^{2}
Reorder the terms.
-xa^{2}+x=-\sqrt{3}a^{2}
Reorder the terms.
\left(-a^{2}+1\right)x=-\sqrt{3}a^{2}
Combine all terms containing x.
\left(1-a^{2}\right)x=-\sqrt{3}a^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(1-a^{2}\right)x}{1-a^{2}}=-\frac{\sqrt{3}a^{2}}{1-a^{2}}
Divide both sides by 1-a^{2}.
x=-\frac{\sqrt{3}a^{2}}{1-a^{2}}
Dividing by 1-a^{2} undoes the multiplication by 1-a^{2}.
1x=a\left(x-\sqrt{3}\right)a
