1 Background Knowledge By the end of this lesson you will be able to explain/calculate the following: 1.Surds 2.Radicals

2 Surds and Radicals radical A radical is any number which is written with the radical sign surd A surd is a real, irrational radical such as Surds are present in solutions to some quadratic equations. is a radical but is not a surd as it simplifies to 2.

3 Surds and Radicals - Properties is the non-negative number such that is never negative, so is meaningful only for for
