Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 1. A number / variable, divided by its square root, equals its square root

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 1. A number / variable, divided by its square root, equals its square root 2. Numbers / variables under THE SAME root / index can be multiplied or divided

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 1. A number / variable, divided by its square root, equals its square root 2. Numbers / variables under THE SAME root / index can be multiplied or divided This rule also works in the OTHER direction, and is sometimes used to help simplify radicals…

Exponents & Radicals – Rules for Radicals Some rules for radicals : 3. Radicals act like variables. They can be added / subtracted as long as the root / index is the same AND what is under the radical is exactly the same.

The number under the root is NOT the same…
