x=24\sqrt{3} x=-24\sqrt{3}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}-1728=0
Subtract 1728 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-1728\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -1728 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-1728\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{6912}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -1728.
x=\frac{0±48\sqrt{3}}{2}
Take the square root of 6912.
x=24\sqrt{3}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±48\sqrt{3}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-24\sqrt{3}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±48\sqrt{3}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=24\sqrt{3} x=-24\sqrt{3}
The equation is now solved.
