x^{2}=2500+50^{2}
Calculate 50 to the power of 2 and get 2500.
x^{2}=2500+2500
Calculate 50 to the power of 2 and get 2500.
x^{2}=5000
Add 2500 and 2500 to get 5000.
x=50\sqrt{2} x=-50\sqrt{2}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
x^{2}=2500+50^{2}
Calculate 50 to the power of 2 and get 2500.
x^{2}=2500+2500
Calculate 50 to the power of 2 and get 2500.
x^{2}=5000
Add 2500 and 2500 to get 5000.
x^{2}-5000=0
Subtract 5000 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\left(-5000\right)}}{2}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 1 for a, 0 for b, and -5000 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\left(-5000\right)}}{2}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{20000}}{2}
Multiply -4 times -5000.
x=\frac{0±100\sqrt{2}}{2}
Take the square root of 20000.
x=50\sqrt{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±100\sqrt{2}}{2} when ± is plus.
x=-50\sqrt{2}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±100\sqrt{2}}{2} when ± is minus.
x=50\sqrt{2} x=-50\sqrt{2}
The equation is now solved.
