Answer:

\large\boxed{\red{\sf x =6+\sqrt{53},6-\sqrt{53}} }

Step-by-step explanation:

We would like to solve the given quadratic equation by <u>c</u><u>o</u><u>m</u><u>p</u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>g</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>square</u><u> </u><u>method</u> .The given equation is ;

\longrightarrow  x^2=12x +17

Subtract 12x to both sides ,

\longrightarrow x^2-12x = 17

Here the co-efficient of x² is already 1 . So , we shall rewrite it as ,

\longrightarrow x^2-2(6)(x) = 17

Add 6² on both sides ,

\longrightarrow x^2-2(6)(x) + 6^2=17+6^2

Now LHS is in the form of (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b² ; so that ;

\longrightarrow  (x -6)^2 = 17+36

Simplify RHS ,

\longrightarrow (x-6)^2=53

Put square root on both sides,

\longrightarrow  (x-6) = \pm\sqrt{53}

Add 6 on both sides,

\longrightarrow x = 6\pm\sqrt{53}

Separate the two solutions ,

\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{x =6+\sqrt{53},6-\sqrt{53}}}

And we are done!
