Now,
x² - 2√2 x + 30
= x² - 2√2 x + (√2)² + 30 - (√2)²
= (x - √2)² + 30 - 2,
using the identity
(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²
= (x - √2)² - 28
= (x - √2)² - (2√7)²
= (x - √2 + 2√7) (x - √2 - 2√7),
using the identity
a² -b² = (a + b) (a - b)
This is the required factorization.

or by using middle term splitting method we get x= 5√2 and -3√2
