Help with radicals, please?!

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-04-21] [Hit: ]
which is two numbers (2 and 3) raised to the same exponent (1/2).So, from our exponent rule, that is equal to (2 x 3)^(1/2), or √(2 x 3).So we write√(2 x 3) + √2--------------------.......

The other thing you need to know is, when you multiply two numbers raised to the same exponent, a^c x b^c, that's equal to (a x b)^c.

Here, we have √2 x √3, which is two numbers (2 and 3) raised to the same exponent (1/2). So, from our exponent rule, that is equal to (2 x 3)^(1/2), or √(2 x 3). So we write

√(2 x 3) + √2
--------------------
........ 4

√6 + √2
-------------
.... 4

That's really just some practice on manipulating radicals; it's not necessary to get to your answer. But I hope it helps!

You're welcome! Good luck in the future!

You multiply straight across

(√2 * √3)/4 + (√2 * 1)/4

Now when you add, you have two square roots of two (2√2) and one is multiplied by the square root of 3.

(√2 + √2√3) / 4

Lastly, you factor out a square root of 2 from both of the terms in the numerator

(√2(1 + √3)) / 4

from
= (√2 √3 + √2)/4
to answer
you just factor out √2
