6. What You’ll Learn  Finding the square roots of perfect squares  Finding the cube roots of perfect cubes  Solving equations involving squares and cubes

7. A square root of a number is one of its two equal factors Example 5 2 = 25, so 5 is the square root of 25 The radical symbol, is used to represent square roots. Positive real numbers have two square roots. 4  4 = 4 2 = 16 Square Roots = 4= 4 Positive square root of 16 (–4)(–4) = (–4) 2 = 16 = – 4 Negative square root of 16

8. A perfect square is a number whose positive square root is a whole number. Some examples of perfect squares are shown in the table. 1 1212 1004 2 9 3232 16 4242 25 5252 36 6262 49 7272 64 8282 81 9292 10 2 The positive square root is represented by. The negative square root is represented by –. The positive and negative is represented by ±. Perfect Squares 400 20 2 361 19 2 121 11 2 144 12 2 169 13 2 196 14 2 225 15 2 256 16 2 289 17 2 324 18 2

11. Cube Roots  A cube root of a number is one of it’s three equal factors  Be careful, you can find the cube root of a negative under the radical  Numbers such as 8, 27, and 64 are perfect cubes because they are the cubes of integers
