  1. Factor completely

  2. Chapter 7 Section 1 Radical Expressions and Functions

  3. Vocabulary • Radical expression • Radical sign • b is the radicand • a is the root index

  4. Principal square root • a is a nonnegative real number, the nonnegative number ‘b’ such that b2 = a, denoted by b = , is the principal square root of ‘a’ • - denotes the negative square root of a number.

  5. Example • is 5 since 52 = 25 • is 10 since 102 = 100 • - is – 5 since (-5)2 = 25
