x-2/x+1=x+1/x-2
I solved ,but how do I check

Whatever value you got for x, you substitute it into the original equation to determine if the equation is true, as long as the x-value is neither - 1, or 2.

You didn't bother to share what your answer to this was, so I cannot say whether it's correct or not.
