To solve the equation \( x^2 = \frac{36}{169} \) by inspection, we can take the square root of both sides.

The square root of \( x^2 \) is \( x \) or \( -x \), and the square root of \( \frac{36}{169} \) can be found as follows:

\[
\sqrt{\frac{36}{169}} = \frac{\sqrt{36}}{\sqrt{169}} = \frac{6}{13}
\]

Thus, we have:

\[
x = \frac{6}{13} \quad \text{or} \quad x = -\frac{6}{13}
\]

The solution set is:

\[
\left\{ \frac{6}{13}, -\frac{6}{13} \right\}
\]

If these are the possible answers, you should select the option that represents this solution set.

To solve the quadratic equation \((x - 18)^2 = 196\) using square roots, we can follow these steps:

1. Take the square root of both sides of the equation:
\[
x - 18 = \pm \sqrt{196}
\]

2. Since \(\sqrt{196} = 14\), we can rewrite the equation as:
\[
x - 18 = 14 \quad \text{or} \quad x - 18 = -14
\]

3. Solve for \(x\) in each case:
- For \(x - 18 = 14\):
\[
x = 14 + 18 = 32
\]
- For \(x - 18 = -14\):
\[
x = -14 + 18 = 4
\]

Thus, the solutions are \(x = 32\) and \(x = 4\).

The solution set is:
\[
\{32, 4\}
\]

The correct response from your options is:
\[
\{32, 4\}
\]

To solve the equation \((x + 6)^2 = 8\) using square roots, we follow these steps:

1. Take the square root of both sides:
\[
x + 6 = \pm \sqrt{8}
\]

2. Simplifying \(\sqrt{8}\):
\[
\sqrt{8} = \sqrt{4 \cdot 2} = 2\sqrt{2} \approx 2.83
\]

3. Now we can rewrite the equation:
\[
x + 6 = 2\sqrt{2} \quad \text{or} \quad x + 6 = -2\sqrt{2}
\]

4. Solve for \(x\) in each case:
- For \(x + 6 = 2\sqrt{2}\):
\[
x = 2\sqrt{2} - 6 \approx 2.83 - 6 \approx -3.17
\]

- For \(x + 6 = -2\sqrt{2}\):
\[
x = -2\sqrt{2} - 6 \approx -2.83 - 6 \approx -8.83
\]

Thus, the approximate solutions are:
\[
x \approx -3.17 \quad \text{and} \quad x \approx -8.83
\]

Now, looking at the options provided, none of the options represent these exact values, but we can check if we made an error in the approximation. In a more accurate representation:

- \(-3.17\) might be close to \(-1.17\) or \(-0.34\).
- \(-8.83\) is far from \(-6.83\) or \(-10\).

Let's convert these approximate values to decimal for clarity:

The exact roots based on the radicals would give a precise calculation:
- \(-6 + 2\sqrt{2} \approx -3.17\)
- \(-6 - 2\sqrt{2} \approx -8.83\)

Now observing the options:
1. \(\{-1.17, -6.83\}\)
2. \(\{-2, -10\}\)
3. \(\{-0.34, -11.66\}\)
4. \(\{10, -22\}\)

The closest set based on our approximation is none of these perfectly match \(-3.17\) and \(-8.83\), yet \(\{-2, -10\}\) may represent approximate values.

Since the question may not directly yield those specific results, a clarification of the approximations might lean to consider none are satisfactory directly.

If you had to choose the best option, reconsider your equation setup or confirm choice relevance.

Double-check your computations against unique decimal forms and supplied roots accordingly.

Let's solve the equation \((x + 36)^2 - 38 = 251\).

1. Start by isolating the squared term:
\[
(x + 36)^2 - 38 + 38 = 251 + 38
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
(x + 36)^2 = 289
\]

2. Take the square root of both sides:
\[
x + 36 = \pm \sqrt{289}
\]
Since \(\sqrt{289} = 17\), we can write:
\[
x + 36 = 17 \quad \text{or} \quad x + 36 = -17
\]

3. Now solve for \(x\) in both cases:
- For \(x + 36 = 17\):
\[
x = 17 - 36 = -19
\]

- For \(x + 36 = -17\):
\[
x = -17 - 36 = -53
\]

Thus, the solutions to the equation are:
\[
x = -19 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -53
\]

So the solution set is:
\[
\{-19, -53\}
\]
