Section 9.1 “Properties of Radicals”
A radical expression is in simplest form if the following conditions are true: The rules also apply for simplifying cube roots and nth roots. No perfect square factors other than 1 are in the radicand. -No fractions are in the radicand. No radicals appear in the denominator of a fraction.
3
Product Property of Radicals
The square (or cube) root of a product equals the product of the square ( or cube) roots of the factors.
4
Quotient Property of Radicals
The square root of a quotient equals the quotient of the square roots of the numerator and denominator.
5
Rationalizing the Denominator
Whenever there is a radical (that is not a perfect square) in the denominator, the radical must be eliminated by rationalizing the denominator. Need to rationalize the denominator Multiply by 1 Product property of radicals Simplify
6
Adding and Subtract Radicals
You can add and subtract radicals that have the same radicands. Think of as combining ‘like terms’ Look for common radicands Simplify
7
Multiplying Radical Expressions
You can multiply radical expressions the same way you multiplied monomials and binomials using the distributive property and FOIL. simplify & combine like terms
8
Conjugates and are called conjugates which can be used to simplify radical expressions containing the sum or difference involving square roots in a denominator. Need to use a conjugate to rationalize the denominator Multiply by 1 Product property of radicals Simplify

Section 9.3 “Solving Quadratic Equations Using Square Roots”
To use square roots to solve a quadratic equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0, first isolate x² on one side of the equation to obtain x² = d. Solving x² = d by Taking Square Roots Examples - If d > 0, then x² = d has two solutions: - If d = 0, then x² = d has one solution: - If d < 0, then x² = d has no solution: no solution no solution

Section 9.4 “Solving Quadratic Equations by Completing the Square”
For an expression of the form x² + bx, you can add a constant c to the expression so that x² + bx + c is a perfect square trinomial. This process is called COMPLETING THE SQUARE. x² + bx (1) Find one-half of b, the coefficient of x. (2) Square the result from Step 1. (3) Add the result from Step 2 to x2 + bx. 2 ( ) 2 b 2 ( ) 2 x² + bx + b 2

Complete the Square. Then factor the trinomial.
x² + 8x (1) Find one-half of b, the coefficient of x. (2) Square the result from Step 1. (3) Add the result from Step 2 to x2 + bx. 2 2 8 ( ) 2 ( ) 2 x² + 8x + 8 2 x² + 8x + (4)2 Factored trinomial (x + 4)(x + 4) x² + 8x + 16 (x + 4)2
16
Solving Quadratic Equations by Completing the Square
The method of completing the square can be used to solve any quadratic equation, once the equation is in the form x² + bx = d. Complete the Square Add 64 to both sides of the equation Write the left side of the equation as a binomial (factor). Simplify right side of equation. Take the square root of both sides. Solve for x.
