Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:



Squaring on both sides we get
-----(A)
Expanding Left hand side we get

=
=
=
Expanding Right Hand side

= 
= 
= 
Hence we have now (A) equal to

subtracting 8x from both sides


Adding 4 on both sides we get...


now squaring on both sides again

----------(B)
Left hand side:

= 
= 
Right hand side:

= 
= 
= 
Hence we have (B) equals to


Subtract
from both sides

---(C)
Also

= 
= 
Hence (C) becomes
Squaring both sides
-------(D)
Left Hand Side
= 
= 
Right hand Side
= 
= 
Hence (D) becomes


subtracting
from both sides
-----(E)
Solving using factoring and trying for all the possible rational roots starting from x=1 , we get it satisfies at x=1 itself. Hence (x-1) is one of the factor
Hence (E) becomes


(E)= becomes

hence x =1 or x=33
the third factor and not be factorized
Checking our solution for x=1


hence true
Checking our solution for x=33


False
hence our answer is
x=1
