Question

In simplifying square root radicals, write the radicand as a product of the factor and another factor.

Answer 1

An example is the following:
`√(45)`

Explanation:

Simplify the radical:
`√(45)`

1.We must write the radicand as a product, and then we must use the product property for simplicity.

The roof of
`\sqrt{45` is equal =
`√(9 x 5)`

2.We must use the property of the product:
`\sqrt {a} x √(b)`

`√(9x 5)`=
`√(9) x√(5)`

`3√(5)`
