| 2 | ( | 12 | − | X | ) | ( | 12 | − | X | ) | = | 8 | X | X |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | × | 12 | ( | 12 | − | X | ) | − | 2 | X | ( | 12 | − | X | ) |
| = | 24 | ( | 12 | − | X | ) | − | 2 | X | ( | 12 | − | X | ) |
| = | 24 | × | 12 | − | 24 | X | − | 2 | X | ( | 12 | − | X | ) |
| = | 288 | − | 24 | X | − | 2 | X | ( | 12 | − | X | ) |
| = | 288 | − | 24 | X | − | 2 | X | × | 12 | + | 2 | X | X |
| = | 288 | − | 24 | X | − | 24 | X | + | 2 | X | X |
| = | 288 | − | 48 | X | + | 2 | X | X |
| 288 | − | 48 | X | + | 2 | X | X | = | 8 | X | X |
| X1= | - | 12 √5 |
