Radicals

Let Us Learn About Radicals.

what is Radical?

A radical is important topic from mathematics subject. A radical number is known as, which number is the factor value of under the root symbol. A radical expression is containing a square root. Radical is denoted by the symbol of √ (Sqrt). That is used to denote square root; and also it is called as n^th root. Now we are going to see about explain are radicals math.

Radicals is a form of symbol which is used in the mathematics. It is shown that the radical symbol as root "√". The number inside the radical symbol which is called as the radicand of the radical value, for example if the given value is square root of √x. The x is called as the radicand which is the number inside the radical symbol root "√". There are more number of rooting methods available depending upon the value we have. The roots are square root √x, cube root 3√x, Fourth root 4√x this up to nth root n√x . Here we are going to see about the math radicals solver in different methods and the solved example problems on it.

Now let us understand properties of Radicals.

Properties of Radicals

• Product Property of Radicals: For two real numbers x and y both nonnegative, √xy = √x X √y
• Quotient Property of Radicals: For two real numbers x and y both nonnegative, =√x/y = √x/√y
  

Radical is also known as surds these are the roots. For example square roots, cube roots etc.

Square root

The square root of a number x is that number which when multiplied by itself gives x as the product.

We denote the square root of a number x by √x.

The symbol is denoted by √.

As we know that square of 4 is 16, then we can also say that square root of 16 is 4.

Let us learn with some examples.

1) √4

= √2*2 [here you can see that 2 is in pairs so take the 2 out of the pair, then square root of 4 is 2]

= 2

2) √9

= √3*3 [here you can see that 3 is in pairs so take the 3 out of the pair, then square root of 9 is 3]

= 3

3) 256

= √16*16 [here you can see that 16 is in pairs so take the 16 out of the pair, then square root of 256 is 16]

= 16
