x^{2}=5+\sqrt{36}
Calculate the square root of 25 and get 5.
x^{2}=5+6
Calculate the square root of 36 and get 6.
x^{2}=11
Add 5 and 6 to get 11.
x=\sqrt{11} x=-\sqrt{11}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}=5+\sqrt{36}
Calculate the square root of 25 and get 5.
x^{2}=5+6
Calculate the square root of 36 and get 6.
x^{2}=11
Add 5 and 6 to get 11.
x^{2}-11=0
Subtract 11 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-11\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -11 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-11\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{44}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -11.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{11}}{2}
Take the square root of 44.
x=\sqrt{11}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{11}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{11}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{11}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{11} x=-\sqrt{11}
The equation is now solved.
