1000=a^{2}\times 1
Multiply a and a to get a^{2}.
a^{2}\times 1=1000
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
a^{2}=1000
Divide both sides by 1.
a=10\sqrt{10} a=-10\sqrt{10}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
1000=a^{2}\times 1
Multiply a and a to get a^{2}.
a^{2}\times 1=1000
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
a^{2}\times 1-1000=0
Subtract 1000 from both sides.
a^{2}-1000=0
Reorder the terms.
a=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-1000\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -1000 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
a=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-1000\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
a=\frac{0±\sqrt{4000}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -1000.
a=\frac{0±20\sqrt{10}}{2}
Take the square root of 4000.
a=10\sqrt{10}
Now solve the equation a=\frac{0±20\sqrt{10}}{2} when ± is plus.
a=-10\sqrt{10}
Now solve the equation a=\frac{0±20\sqrt{10}}{2} when ± is minus.
a=10\sqrt{10} a=-10\sqrt{10}
The equation is now solved.
