-\left(m-1\right)^{2}+2-2=-1-2
Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation.
-\left(m-1\right)^{2}=-1-2
Subtracting 2 from itself leaves 0.
-\left(m-1\right)^{2}=-3
Subtract 2 from -1.
\frac{-\left(m-1\right)^{2}}{-1}=-\frac{3}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
\left(m-1\right)^{2}=-\frac{3}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
\left(m-1\right)^{2}=3
Divide -3 by -1.
m-1=\sqrt{3} m-1=-\sqrt{3}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
m-1-\left(-1\right)=\sqrt{3}-\left(-1\right) m-1-\left(-1\right)=-\sqrt{3}-\left(-1\right)
Add 1 to both sides of the equation.
m=\sqrt{3}-\left(-1\right) m=-\sqrt{3}-\left(-1\right)
Subtracting -1 from itself leaves 0.
m=\sqrt{3}+1
Subtract -1 from \sqrt{3}.
m=1-\sqrt{3}
Subtract -1 from -\sqrt{3}.
m=\sqrt{3}+1 m=1-\sqrt{3}
The equation is now solved.
