Study Notes
Topic: Exponents and Radicals
-
Exponents: Have been used to solve problems since the time of the Babylonians (over 4,000 years ago). Used in calculating interest and bacterial growth.
-
Pythagorean Triples: Sets of three positive integers such as 3, 4, and 5 representing the sides of a right triangle (e.g., Plimpton 322).
-
Bacterial Growth: Growing bacterial populations double at regular intervals, modeled using powers with integral exponents (e.g., 2⁰, 2¹, 2²).
-
Algebraic Generalizations: Used to generalize relationships through abstract thinking. Arithmetic operations extend to powers and polynomials.
Topic: Square Roots and Cube Roots
-
Perfect Squares: A number that results from multiplying an integer by itself. (e.g., 25 = 5 x 5).
-
Square Roots: A number that, when multiplied by itself, results in the perfect square. (e.g., √25 = 5).
-
Perfect Cubes: A number that results from multiplying an integer by itself three times. (e.g., 8 = 2 x 2 x 2).
-
Cube Roots: A number that, when multiplied by itself three times, results in the perfect cube. (e.g., ∛8 = 2).
-
Relationship between side length and area of a square: The side length of a square is related to the area by the square root of the area. (e.g., if the area is 36cm², then the side length is 6cm).
-
Relationship between edge length and volume of a cube: The edge length of a cube is related to the volume by the cube root of the volume. (e.g., if the volume is 125mm³, then the edge length is 5mm).
Topic: Exponent Laws
-
Product of Powers: Multiplying powers with the same base: am * an = am+n
-
Quotient of Powers: Dividing powers with the same base: am/an = am-n (a ≠ 0)
-
Power of a Power: Raising a power to a power: (am)n = amn
-
Power of a Product: Raising a product to a power: (ab)m = am * bm
-
Power of a Quotient: Raising a quotient to a power: (a/b)m = am/bm (b ≠ 0)
-
Zero Exponent: Any non-zero base raised to the zero power equals 1: a⁰ = 1 (a ≠ 0).
-
Negative Exponents: A negative exponent indicates a reciprocal of a power: a-n = 1/an (a ≠ 0).
Topic: Rational Exponents
- Rational exponent law examples: Powers with fractional or decimal exponents can be simplified using exponent rules. The denominator of the fractional exponent corresponds to the index of the radical.
Topic: Introduction to Radicals
-
Irrational numbers: Numbers that cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers and have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal expansions. (e.g., π, √2, √3).
-
Radical notation: Used to represent irrational numbers. (e.g., ∛8 = 2).
-
Mixed radicals: Radicals that contain a coefficient and radicand. (E.g. 2√3).
-
Entire radicals: Radicals that contain no integer coefficient. (e.g. √32).
-
Converting between powers and radicals: Fractional exponents can be converted into radical notation by making the denominator the index of the radical.
-
Converting between mixed and entire radicals: Expressing radicals as mixed or entire radicals. Finding the perfect square factors within the radical and rewriting it as product of radicals. Simlifying.
-
Ordering radicals: Ordering radicals from least to greatest involves estimating their approximate values, converting mixed radicals into entire radicals and comparing.
Topic: Applying Exponent Laws and Radicals to Real-Life Problems
- Solving problems using formulas: Real life examples using formulas and exponent/radical rules for exponential decay/growth, surface area calculations, volume calculations or problem-solving in relevant contexts (e.g., bacterial growth, population growth, area and volume calculations, etc).
