Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals A radical is simply a root. The root taken is also referred to as an index. If you have a square root the index is two. If you have a cube root the index is three.

If you have a cube root the index is three. For now we will work only with square roots. Perfect Squares – numbers that are gotten by multiplying the SAME number by itself. You could create a table of perfect squares…

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Perfect Squares – numbers that are gotten by multiplying the SAME number by itself. You could create a table of perfect squares… To find a perfect square root, we will think of the perfect square table. Realize that table keeps going, I only went up to 12…. EXAMPLE :

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 1. A number / variable, divided by its square root, equals its square root

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 1. A number / variable, divided by its square root, equals its square root 2. Numbers / variables under THE SAME root / index can be multiplied or divided

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 1. A number / variable, divided by its square root, equals its square root 2. Numbers / variables under THE SAME root / index can be multiplied or divided This rule also works in the OTHER direction, and is sometimes used to help simplify radicals…

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 3. Radicals act like variables. They can be added / subtracted as long as the root / index is the same AND what is under the radical is exactly the same.

The number under the root is NOT the same…
