x^{2}+7=3\sqrt{3}
Factor 27=3^{2}\times 3. Rewrite the square root of the product \sqrt{3^{2}\times 3} as the product of square roots \sqrt{3^{2}}\sqrt{3}. Take the square root of 3^{2}.
x^{2}=3\sqrt{3}-7
Subtract 7 from both sides.
x=i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}} x=-i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}
The equation is now solved.
x^{2}+7=3\sqrt{3}
Factor 27=3^{2}\times 3. Rewrite the square root of the product \sqrt{3^{2}\times 3} as the product of square roots \sqrt{3^{2}}\sqrt{3}. Take the square root of 3^{2}.
x^{2}+7-3\sqrt{3}=0
Subtract 3\sqrt{3} from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(7-3\sqrt{3}\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and 7-3\sqrt{3} for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(7-3\sqrt{3}\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{12\sqrt{3}-28}}{2}
Multiply -4 times 7-3\sqrt{3}.
x=\frac{0±2i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}}{2}
Take the square root of -28+12\sqrt{3}.
x=i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}} x=-i\sqrt{7-3\sqrt{3}}
The equation is now solved.
