The answer to the problem above is True. Standard form of an equation means the right side of the equation should be 0, and everything on the left side. For example, x^2 = 4 , to make this this in standard form you have to transfer number 4 to the left side of the equation making it x^2 - 4 = 0.
In this situation, if you will be asked to look for x, there is no need to make the equation in standard form, you can directly take the square root of both sides of the equation to get x.
