We move all terms to the left:
r2-2r+1-(5)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
r^2-2r-4=0
a = 1; b = -2; c = -4;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -22-4·1·(-4)
Δ = 20
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$r_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$r_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{20}=\sqrt{4*5}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{5}=2\sqrt{5}$
$r_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)-2\sqrt{5}}{2*1}=\frac{2-2\sqrt{5}}{2} $
$r_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-2)+2\sqrt{5}}{2*1}=\frac{2+2\sqrt{5}}{2} $
