Precision Component Manufacturing

A manufacturing technician is solving the equation 2(x−2)2+3=57{}2(x - 2)^2 + 3 = 57 to determine the tolerance xx of a precision component. The technician has correctly simplified the equation to the form (x−2)2=27(x - 2)^2 = 27. Describe the next immediate mathematical step the technician must perform on both sides of the equation to continue solving for xx.
