square - isolate remaining square-roots on one side - square - isolate remaining square-roots on one side - square - isolate remaining square-roots on one side - square .... until there is no square-root left.
2. You'll get finally a quadratic equation in a. Solve for a.
3. Afterwards solve these 2 equations for x.
4. Since you may transform a false equation into a true one by squaring you must check if your results satisfy the given original equation.
