00:03 In this example, we have a quadratic in vertex form.
00:09 So what we're going to do is use the square root property to take the square root of both sides.
00:17 The square root and the square cancel, leaving you with the quantity a minus 4, plus or minus the square root of 28.
00:27 We're going to simplify our square root of 28 by looking at the perfect squares that go into 28...
