To solve the equation \( 36 = x^2 \), we can take the square root of both sides.
\[
x = \pm \sqrt{36}
\]
Calculating the square root gives us:
\[
x = \pm 6
\]
Thus, the solutions for \( x \) are:
\[
x = 6 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -6
\]
In simplest radical form, the solution is:
\[
x = \pm 6
\]
\[
x = \pm \sqrt{36}
\]
Calculating the square root gives us:
\[
x = \pm 6
\]
Thus, the solutions for \( x \) are:
\[
x = 6 \quad \text{or} \quad x = -6
\]
In simplest radical form, the solution is:
\[
x = \pm 6
