Presentation transcript:

Square Roots a is a square root of b if and only if Example 1 3 is a square root of 9, since - 3 is also a square root of 9, since Thus, 9 has two square roots, -3 and 3.

Example 2 The number 0 has only one square root, which is 0 since

Sometimes there are no square roots of a number. Example 3: There are no square roots of –16 since there are no numbers a such that Note that neither 4 nor – 4 will work.

Radical notation Radical symbol Square root of a The expression that appears under the radical sign, a in this case, is called the radicand. When radical notation is used, the result is the principal square root, which is the non-negative root.

Example 4 Simplify: There are two square roots of 25, - 5 and 5. The principal second root is the non-negative root, or 5. Therefore,

Example 5 Simplify Reasoning Note that while it is also true that we want the principal (nonnegative) root.
