How to solve a quadratic by applying the square root method

The video tutorial explains how to solve quadratic equations using the square root method. It begins by discussing the need to isolate the square term in the equation. The tutorial then demonstrates taking the square root of both sides, emphasizing the inclusion of both positive and negative roots. It also addresses the concept of complex numbers when real solutions are not possible, concluding with a summary of the method.
