Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given radical equation is
Calculation:
The solution of the given radical equation is obtained in the following manner.
Substitute
The equation becomes:
Apply cross multiplication of the fractions in the above expression:
Expand the left hand side of the above expression.
Expand the right hand side of the above expression.
The expanded expression becomes:
Equate the real and imaginary part of the complex number. The complex numbers are equal only when their real and imaginary parts are equal.
Develop the system of equations and then solve these.
The solution of these system of equation is
Again substitute
The solution is
Therefore, the solution of the given radical equation is
