192=r^{2}\times 8
Cancel out \pi on both sides.
\frac{192}{8}=r^{2}
Divide both sides by 8.
24=r^{2}
Divide 192 by 8 to get 24.
r^{2}=24
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
r=2\sqrt{6} r=-2\sqrt{6}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
192=r^{2}\times 8
Cancel out \pi on both sides.
\frac{192}{8}=r^{2}
Divide both sides by 8.
24=r^{2}
Divide 192 by 8 to get 24.
r^{2}=24
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
r^{2}-24=0
Subtract 24 from both sides.
r=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-24\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -24 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
r=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-24\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
r=\frac{0±\sqrt{96}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -24.
r=\frac{0±4\sqrt{6}}{2}
Take the square root of 96.
r=2\sqrt{6}
Now solve the equation r=\frac{0±4\sqrt{6}}{2} when ± is plus.
r=-2\sqrt{6}
Now solve the equation r=\frac{0±4\sqrt{6}}{2} when ± is minus.
r=2\sqrt{6} r=-2\sqrt{6}
The equation is now solved.
