Solution Steps

Step 1: Apply the square root property

To solve the equation \(x^{2} = 27\), we take the square root of both sides. This gives: \[ x = \pm \sqrt{27} \]

Step 2: Simplify the square root

The square root of 27 can be simplified by factoring out perfect squares: \[ \sqrt{27} = \sqrt{9 \times 3} = \sqrt{9} \times \sqrt{3} = 3\sqrt{3} \]

Step 3: Write the final solutions

Substituting the simplified square root back into the equation, we get: \[ x = \pm 3\sqrt{3} \]

Final Answer

\[ \boxed{x = 3\sqrt{3}, -3\sqrt{3}} \]
