REMEMBER! Do not turn in your HW this morning. We will be going over the worksheet and using it for HW tonight!
Do Now 1 (5 min)
Define a square root.
What is the square root of 81?
What is five squared?
What is the difference between perfect and imperfect squares?
Objective:I can define cube roots and find both perfect and imperfect examples.

2. Cubes To cube a number, you multiply it by itself three times.
Example: 3 Cubed (33) =3 × 3 × 3 = 27

3. Perfect Cubes
Perfect Cube = a whole number that is formed by multiplying one whole number by itself three times. Example: 27 is a perfect cube because… 3 x 3 x 3 = 27

4. Perfect Cubes/Roots Cube 27 3 Cube Root 3 x 3 x 3 = 27
The cube root of = 3
Cube 27 3
Cube Root
3 x 3 x 3 = 27

5. Perfect Cubes/Roots Cube 64 4 Cube Root 4 x 4 x 4 = 64
The cube root of = 4
Cube 64 4
Cube Root
4 x 4 x 4 = 64

You will have a copy of this for estimation!!

7. STOP AND JOT 1
1.) How else can we write 5 x 5 x 5? 2.) How else can we write “the cube root of 216”? 3.) What is a perfect cube? 4.) What is a perfect cube root?

8. Imperfect Cubes/Roots
Imperfect Cube = a whole number that is formed by multiplying one non-whole number by itself three times. Example: 40 is an imperfect cube because… 3.4 x 3.4 x 3.4 = 40

9. Imperfect Cubes/Roots
The cube root of = 3.4
Cube 40
3.4
Cube Root
3.4 x 3.4 x 3.4 = 40

10. Example: Estimating Imperfect Cube Roots1 2 3 4 5 6
Perfect Cube 8 27 64

216
Steps:
Refer to perfect cubes close to the number you are estimating.
Make an estimation using the number line.

--Problem:
--We look between 64 and 27.
-Since 40 is about in the middle of 27 and 64, we are looking for a root roughly in the middle of 3 and 4.
