Answer:


x=1\pm i

Explanation:

The given equation is :


x^2-2x=-2\\\\x^2-2x+2=0

The above equation is a quadratic equation whose solution can be given by :


x=(-b\pm √(b^2-4ac) )/(2a)

Here,

a = 1, b = -2 and c = 2

So,


x=(-(-2)\pm √((-2)^2-4(1)(2)) )/(2(1))

So,


x=1+i,1-i\\\\x=1\pm i

So, the solution of the equation is
1\pm i.
