Topic
Rationals and Radicals
Description
A Square Root is a number that, when multiplied by itself, equals a given number. Square roots can be written using the radical symbol or as a rational exponent. For example, √25 = 5 and 36(1/2) = 6. This definition includes properties such as √a * √a = a. This term connects to the topic by introducing square roots, which are frequently encountered in operations involving radicals and rational expressions.
