Warm-Up/Review:
Find the actual dimensions of the rectangle:
x + 5
x - 1A = 112 (x + 5) (x – 1) = 112
x2
+ 4x - 5 = 112
x2
+ 4x + 4 = 121
(x + 2) 2
= 121
x = 2 + 11 x = -13, x = 9
x2
+ 4x = 117
Pencils down, mental math only. What is the resulting
trinomial? Square, Double, Square
9m2 – 42mn + 49n2
Solve: 2x2 – 4 = 60

Notice that these properties can be used to combine
quantities under the radical symbol or separate them
for the purpose of simplifying square-root expressions.

Simplifying Radicals
If a fraction has a denominator that is a square root,
you can simplify it by rationalizing the denominator.
To do this, multiply both the numerator and
denominator by a number that produces a perfect
square under the radical sign in the denominator.
Multiply by a form of 1.

Square roots that have the same radicand are called
like radical terms.
To add or subtract square roots, first simplify each radical term
and then combine like radical terms by adding or subtracting
their coefficients.
