3^{2}\left(\sqrt{3}\right)^{2}-x^{2}=3^{2}-\left(6-x\right)^{2}
Expand \left(3\sqrt{3}\right)^{2}.
9\left(\sqrt{3}\right)^{2}-x^{2}=3^{2}-\left(6-x\right)^{2}
Calculate 3 to the power of 2 and get 9.
9\times 3-x^{2}=3^{2}-\left(6-x\right)^{2}
The square of \sqrt{3} is 3.
27-x^{2}=3^{2}-\left(6-x\right)^{2}
Multiply 9 and 3 to get 27.
27-x^{2}=9-\left(6-x\right)^{2}
Calculate 3 to the power of 2 and get 9.
27-x^{2}=9-\left(36-12x+x^{2}\right)
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(6-x\right)^{2}.
27-x^{2}=9-36+12x-x^{2}
To find the opposite of 36-12x+x^{2}, find the opposite of each term.
27-x^{2}=-27+12x-x^{2}
Subtract 36 from 9 to get -27.
27-x^{2}-12x=-27-x^{2}
Subtract 12x from both sides.
27-x^{2}-12x+x^{2}=-27
Add x^{2} to both sides.
27-12x=-27
Combine -x^{2} and x^{2} to get 0.
-12x=-27-27
Subtract 27 from both sides.
-12x=-54
Subtract 27 from -27 to get -54.
x=\frac{-54}{-12}
Divide both sides by -12.
x=\frac{9}{2}
Reduce the fraction \frac{-54}{-12} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -6.
