To solve the equation \( x^2 = 24 \), we can take the square root of both sides. However, we need to remember that there are both positive and negative solutions when taking the square root.

The solutions are:

\[
x = \sqrt{24} \quad \text{and} \quad x = -\sqrt{24}
\]

Next, we simplify \( \sqrt{24} \):

\[
\sqrt{24} = \sqrt{4 \times 6} = \sqrt{4} \times \sqrt{6} = 2\sqrt{6}
\]

So the two solutions can be expressed as:

\[
x = 2\sqrt{6} \quad \text{and} \quad x = -2\sqrt{6}
\]

Therefore, the solutions to the equation \( x^2 = 24 \) are:

\[
x = 2\sqrt{6} \quad \text{and} \quad x = -2\sqrt{6}
\]
