29. How do you know when a radical problem is done? 1. No radicals can be simplified. Example: 2. There are no fractions in the radical. Example: 3. There are no radicals in the denominator. Example:

30. = 6 = 3 = 2

31. Adding and Subtracting Radicals (6 examples)

32. Sums and Differences The previous rules allowed us to split radicals that had a radicand which was a product or a quotient. However, we can NOT split sums or differences.

33. Simplified Adding and Subtracting Radicals Ex 1 We can only combine terms with radicals if we have like radicals Ex 2 Ex 3

34. Adding and Subtracting Radicals Ex 4

35. Simplify the following radical expression. Ex 5 Adding and Subtracting Radicals
