Question 622116: I have to solve this equation with radicals and I am not sure if i just square both sides and then that removes the radicals and it becomes a normal equation. I think that's how to do it but for some reason I think there might be a different rule for when two radicals are on two sides of the equations. If you could help me with this and show work I would really appreciate it, this has me stumped.

square both sides and the radicals go away. In this case, it is a simple thing to do
now square both sides

check your answers by solving the original equations with x = 1 to see if both sides resolve to the same value
