Dear Student,

There are different condition for taking +/- sign.
If Given,
X^2= 25
taking root in both side.
X= root 25
here we taking root thus it gives +5 and -5.

If Given
X= root 25
X= +5
here root already given thus by default we take positive because before root 25 have no sign.

So here we can't take negative X and Y.

Keep learning with us!
