1=2.1^{2}x^{2}+x^{2}
Expand \left(2.1x\right)^{2}.
1=4.41x^{2}+x^{2}
Calculate 2.1 to the power of 2 and get 4.41.
1=5.41x^{2}
Combine 4.41x^{2} and x^{2} to get 5.41x^{2}.
5.41x^{2}=1
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x^{2}=\frac{1}{5.41}
Divide both sides by 5.41.
x^{2}=\frac{100}{541}
Expand \frac{1}{5.41} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.
x=\frac{10\sqrt{541}}{541} x=-\frac{10\sqrt{541}}{541}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
1=2.1^{2}x^{2}+x^{2}
Expand \left(2.1x\right)^{2}.
1=4.41x^{2}+x^{2}
Calculate 2.1 to the power of 2 and get 4.41.
1=5.41x^{2}
Combine 4.41x^{2} and x^{2} to get 5.41x^{2}.
5.41x^{2}=1
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5.41x^{2}-1=0
Subtract 1 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 5.41\left(-1\right)}}{2\times 5.41}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 5.41 for a, 0 for b, and -1 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 5.41\left(-1\right)}}{2\times 5.41}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-21.64\left(-1\right)}}{2\times 5.41}
Multiply -4 times 5.41.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{21.64}}{2\times 5.41}
Multiply -21.64 times -1.
x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{541}}{5}}{2\times 5.41}
Take the square root of 21.64.
x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{541}}{5}}{10.82}
Multiply 2 times 5.41.
x=\frac{10\sqrt{541}}{541}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{541}}{5}}{10.82} when ± is plus.
x=-\frac{10\sqrt{541}}{541}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±\frac{\sqrt{541}}{5}}{10.82} when ± is minus.
x=\frac{10\sqrt{541}}{541} x=-\frac{10\sqrt{541}}{541}
The equation is now solved.
