Study Notes
Important Roots
- The symbol √ is used to denote the square root of a number.
- The symbol √ can be used to simplify expressions involving square roots.
Basic Rules
- The rule √a × √b = √(a × b) is used to simplify expressions involving square roots.
- The rule (√a)^n = √(a^n) is used to simplify expressions involving square roots and exponents.
Simplifying Radicals
- Simplifying radicals involves combining like terms and simplifying expressions involving square roots.
- Examples of simplifying radicals include:
- √8 = √(4 × 2) = √4 × √2 = 2√2
- √20 = √(4 × 5) = √4 × √5 = 2√5
- √9 = √(3 × 3) = √3 × √3 = 3
Properties of Square Roots
- If x^2 = a, then x = ±√a
- Examples of using this property include:
- If x^2 = 9, then x = ±√9 = ±3
- If x^2 = 16, then x = ±√16 = ±4
Comparing Square Roots
- Comparing square roots involves determining whether one square root is greater than, less than, or equal to another.
- Examples of comparing square roots include:
- Comparing √101 and √100: √101 > √100
- Comparing √0.81 and √0.9: √0.81 < √0.9
