What’s the biggest number here that will go into 80 evenly? 16 x 5

Simplify the Square Root

The square root of a negative number does not exist. So, we say it is an imaginary number and we use the variable “i”.

The square root of a negative number does not exist. So, we say it is an imaginary number and we use the variable “i”.

as exponent means

Numerator is 1

If the numerator is not 1, it becomes the exponent underneath the radical. Outside RadicalUnder Radical

If the numerator is not 1, it becomes the exponent underneath the radical.

If there are 2 exponents, multiply them.
