\pi \pi x^{2}+4=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.
\pi ^{2}x^{2}+4=0
Multiply \pi and \pi to get \pi ^{2}.
\pi ^{2}x^{2}=-4
Subtract 4 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x^{2}=-\frac{4}{\pi ^{2}}
Dividing by \pi ^{2} undoes the multiplication by \pi ^{2}.
x=\frac{2i}{\pi } x=-\frac{2i}{\pi }
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x=\frac{2i}{\pi } x=\frac{-2i}{\pi }
The equation is now solved.
\pi \pi x^{2}+4=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.
\pi ^{2}x^{2}+4=0
Multiply \pi and \pi to get \pi ^{2}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\pi ^{2}\times 4}}{2\pi ^{2}}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute \pi ^{2} for a, 0 for b, and 4 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\pi ^{2}\times 4}}{2\pi ^{2}}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{\left(-4\pi ^{2}\right)\times 4}}{2\pi ^{2}}
Multiply -4 times \pi ^{2}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-16\pi ^{2}}}{2\pi ^{2}}
Multiply -4\pi ^{2} times 4.
x=\frac{0±4\pi i}{2\pi ^{2}}
Take the square root of -16\pi ^{2}.
x=\frac{2i}{\pi }
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±4\pi i}{2\pi ^{2}} when ± is plus.
x=\frac{-2i}{\pi }
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±4\pi i}{2\pi ^{2}} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{2i}{\pi } x=\frac{-2i}{\pi }
The equation is now solved.
