Section 7.1 Basic of Roots (Radicals)

Definition of a Square Root if and only if is a square root of

Find any square root(s) of…

Conclusion If a is a positive number, there are two square roots; one positive and one negative. If a is a negative number, there is no real square root.

Principal Square Root The principal square root of a positive number is the positive square root. It is indicated by this sign.

Examine these.

Find the following.

Square Root Function

Other Types of Roots if and only if Radical Sign: n: the index ‘a’: the radicand is a radical!

Notice: An ‘odd’ root of a negative value is real. An ‘even’ root of a negative does not exist.

Roots with variables If n is ‘even’, this expression is only defined if a is positive. Therefore we will always assume that all variables are positive when figuring roots.

Find the following.

Find the following. Assume all variables are positive.
