Study Notes
Perfect Squares and Cube Roots
- A perfect square is the square of an integer.
- First 10 perfect squares: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100.
- To find square roots, determine the opposite of squaring a number.
- Positive numbers have real square roots; negative numbers have no real square roots.
- The square root of 16 is 4 (or -4).
- The radical sign (√x) denotes the principal square root of x; -√x indicates the negative square root.
- A non-perfect square does not yield an integer when square rooted.
Estimating Square Roots
- Identify two consecutive integers between which a square root lies.
- Approximate square roots to the nearest tenth (e.g., √84 between 9 and 10).
Perfect Cubes
- A perfect cube is the cube of an integer.
- First 10 perfect cubes: 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216, 343, 512, 729, 1000.
- Cube roots denote finding the opposite of cubing a number.
- All integers have one cube root; for instance, cube roots for 8 yield 2, and for -8 yield -2.
Understanding Square Roots
- Every non-zero integer has two square roots (positive and negative), but only one cube root because cubing can only yield a specific value without ambiguity.
Scientific Notation
- Scientific notation simplifies the writing of very large or very small numbers.
- Written in the form a × 10^n, where 1 ≤ a < 10.
- Steps for conversion to scientific notation:
- Move the decimal point to obtain a number between 1 and 10.
- The exponent reflects the number of places moved; right move indicates a negative exponent, left indicates positive.
- Ensure written numbers adhere to scientific notation rules, correcting as necessary.
