x=\sqrt{33} x=-\sqrt{33}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}-33=0
Subtract 33 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-33\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -33 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-33\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{132}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -33.
x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{33}}{2}
Take the square root of 132.
x=\sqrt{33}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{33}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{33}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±2\sqrt{33}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{33} x=-\sqrt{33}
The equation is now solved.
