    Solution:

    Let's solve this question by the complete square method.
    x2-14x+33=0
    x2-14x            =33                    ………………1
    ⇒ Third term = 12×122 
                             = 49
    Adding the term on both sides
     x2-14x+49=-33+49
     x2-14x+49=16
    (x-7)2=16
    Taking square roots on both sides
     (x-7)2=16 (x-7)= ±4               ………………… Let's, find the values of by equating the expression obtained in the solution to the +4 and −4.
     (x-7)=+4
     x=4+7
     x=11
    Also,
     (x-7)=-4
     x=-4+7
     x=3
