3. Simplifying Radical Expressions

Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 26 Page 248

Consider the Product Property of Square Roots.

80

Practice makes perfect

We can simplify this expression by multiplying the expressions inside the radicals and multiplying the constants, separately. asqrt(b)* csqrt(d)=a* csqrt(b* d) ⇓ 4sqrt(2)* 5sqrt(8)= 4* 5sqrt(2*8) Then we can simplify the expression by rewriting the number under the square root as the product of at least one perfect square factor.

4* 5sqrt(2* 8)

Multiply

20sqrt(16)

Calculate root
