in general, when solving a radical equation, you should first isolate the radical and then square both sides
An example of a radical equation is
[tex]\sqrt{x - 3} + 5 = 1[/tex]
The first step is to isolate the radical.
This gives
[tex]\sqrt{x - 3} = -4[/tex]
Then, square both sides
x - 3 = 16
Hence, the text that completes the statement is radical
