h^2=\text{0}.36

to solve this, you need to isolate x,

Step 1

square root in both sides


\begin{gathered} h^2=0.36 \\ √(h^2)=√(0.36) \\ \text{the }√(\square)\text{ eliminates the square} \\ h=\pm√(0.36) \end{gathered}

so, there are two values for h that fit this equation


\begin{gathered} +\sqrt{0.36\text{ }}=0.6 \\ \text{and} \\ -√(0.36)=-0.6 \end{gathered}

so, the answers are A and B
