Simplify Square Roots

Use the Product Property to Simplify Square Roots

The properties we will use to simplify expressions with square roots are similar to the properties of exponents. We know that \({(ab)}^{m}={a}^{m}{b}^{m}\). The corresponding property of square roots says that \(\sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot \sqrt{b}\).

We use the Product Property of Square Roots to remove all perfect square factors from a radical. We will show how to do this in .

How To Use the Product Property to Simplify a Square Root

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{50}\).

Solution

Notice in the previous example that the simplified form of \(\sqrt{50}\) is \(5\sqrt{2}\), which is the product of an integer and a square root. We always write the integer in front of the square root.

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{500}\).

Solution

	\(\sqrt{500}\)
Rewrite the radicand as a product using the largest perfect square factor.	\(\sqrt{100\cdot 5}\)
Rewrite the radical as the product of two radicals.	\(\sqrt{100}\cdot \sqrt{5}\)
Simplify.	\(10\sqrt{5}\)

We could use the simplified form \(10\sqrt{5}\) to estimate \(\sqrt{500}\). We know 5 is between 2 and 3, and \(\sqrt{500}\) is \(10\sqrt{5}\). So \(\sqrt{500}\) is between 20 and 30.

The next example is much like the previous examples, but with variables.

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{{x}^{3}}\).

Solution

	\(\sqrt{{x}^{3}}\)
Rewrite the radicand as a product using the largest perfect square factor.	\(\sqrt{{x}^{2}\cdot x}\)
Rewrite the radical as the product of two radicals.	\(\sqrt{{x}^{2}}\cdot \sqrt{x}\)
Simplify.	\(x\sqrt{x}\)

We follow the same procedure when there is a coefficient in the radical, too.

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{25{y}^{5}.}\)

Solution

	\(\sqrt{25{y}^{5}}\)
Rewrite the radicand as a product using the largest perfect square factor.	\(\sqrt{25{y}^{4}\cdot y}\)
Rewrite the radical as the product of two radicals.	\(\sqrt{25{y}^{4}}\cdot \sqrt{y}\)
Simplify.	\(5{y}^{2}\sqrt{y}\)

Use the Quotient Property to Simplify Square Roots

Whenever you have to simplify a square root, the first step you should take is to determine whether the radicand is a perfect square. A perfect square fraction is a fraction in which both the numerator and the denominator are perfect squares.

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{\frac{9}{64}}\).

Solution

\(\begin{array}{llll} & & & \ \sqrt{\frac{9}{64}} \\ \text{Since}\ {(\frac{3}{8})}^{2}=\frac{9}{64} & & & \ \frac{3}{8}\end{array}\)

If the numerator and denominator have any common factors, remove them. You may find a perfect square fraction!

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{\frac{45}{80}}\).

Solution

	\(\sqrt{\frac{45}{80}}\)
Simplify inside the radical first. Rewrite showing the common factors of the numerator and denominator.	\(\sqrt{\frac{5\cdot 9}{5\cdot 16}}\)
Simplify the fraction by removing common factors.	\(\sqrt{\frac{9}{16}}\)
\(\text{Simplify.}\ {(\frac{3}{4})}^{2}=\frac{9}{16}\)	\(\frac{3}{4}\)

In the last example, our first step was to simplify the fraction under the radical by removing common factors. In the next example we will use the Quotient Property to simplify under the radical. We divide the like bases by subtracting their exponents, \(\frac{{a}^{m}}{{a}^{n}}={a}^{m-n},a\ne 0\).

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{\frac{{m}^{6}}{{m}^{4}}}\).

Solution

	\(\sqrt{\frac{{m}^{6}}{{m}^{4}}}\)
Simplify the fraction inside the radical first.
Divide the like bases by subtracting the exponents.	\(\sqrt{{m}^{2}}\)
Simplify.	\(m\)

Example

Try it.

Simplify: \(\sqrt{\frac{48{p}^{7}}{3{p}^{3}}}\).

Solution

	\(\sqrt{\frac{48{p}^{7}}{3{p}^{3}}}\)
Simplify the fraction inside the radical first.	\(\sqrt{16{p}^{4}}\)
Simplify.	\(4{p}^{2}\)

Remember the Quotient to a Power Property? It said we could raise a fraction to a power by raising the numerator and denominator to the power separately.

\[{(\frac{a}{b})}^{m}=\frac{{a}^{m}}{{b}^{m}},b\ne 0\]

We can use a similar property to simplify a square root of a fraction. After removing all common factors from the numerator and denominator, if the fraction is not a perfect square we simplify the numerator and denominator separately.

Key Concepts

• Simplified Square Root \(\sqrt{a}\) is considered simplified if \(a\) has no perfect-square factors.
• Product Property of Square Roots If a, b are non-negative real numbers, then
  \[\sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot \sqrt{b}\]
• Simplify a Square Root Using the Product Property To simplify a square root using the Product Property:
  1. Find the largest perfect square factor of the radicand. Rewrite the radicand as a product using the perfect square factor.
  2. Use the product rule to rewrite the radical as the product of two radicals.
  3. Simplify the square root of the perfect square.
• Quotient Property of Square Roots If a, b are non-negative real numbers and \(b\ne 0\), then
  \[\sqrt{\frac{a}{b}}=\frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}}\]
• Simplify a Square Root Using the Quotient Property To simplify a square root using the Quotient Property:
  1. Simplify the fraction in the radicand, if possible.
  2. Use the Quotient Rule to rewrite the radical as the quotient of two radicals.
  3. Simplify the radicals in the numerator and the denominator.

어떻게: Simplify Square Roots

1. Use the Product Property to simplify square roots
2. Use the Quotient Property to simplify square roots
3. Find the largest perfect square factor of the radicand. Rewrite the radicand as a product using the perfect-square factor.
4. Use the product rule to rewrite the radical as the product of two radicals.
5. Simplify the square root of the perfect square.
6. Simplify the fraction in the radicand, if possible.
7. Use the Quotient Property to rewrite the radical as the quotient of two radicals.
8. Simplify the radicals in the numerator and the denominator.

사람들이 묻는 질문

What does it mean to solve an equation?

To find every value of the unknown that makes both sides equal. Each step is an operation applied to both sides that keeps the solution set the same, until the unknown stands alone.

Why do I sometimes get two answers?

A quadratic can cross the axis twice, so it can have two solutions. A degree-n polynomial has up to n. The graph shows where each one comes from.

How do I know whether to factor or use the quadratic formula?

Try factoring for a few seconds: look for two numbers that multiply to a·c and add to b. If nothing obvious appears, the discriminant b² − 4ac tells you how many real roots there are, and the formula finds them without guessing.
