       2          2
(x + 2)  = (x - 8) 
$$\left(x + 2\right)^{2} = \left(x - 8\right)^{2}$$
Detail solution
Given the equation:
(x+2)^2 = (x-8)^2

Expand expressions:
4 + x^2 + 4*x = (x-8)^2

(x+2)^2 = 64 + x^2 - 16*x

Reducing, you get:
-60 + 20*x = 0

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$20 x = 60$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 20
x = 60 / (20)

We get the answer: x = 3
