A radical expression contains a root, which can be shown using the radical symbol, . • The root of a number x is a number that, when multiplied by itself a given number of times, equals x. • For Example: Simplifying Radicals Basic Review
Simplifying Radicals Steps • Use a factor tree to put the number in terms of its prime factors. • Group the same factor in groups of the number on the outside. • Merge those numbers into 1 and place on the outside. • Multiply the numbers outside together and the ones left on the inside together. 6
To add and/or subtract radicals you must first Simplify them, then combine like radicals. • Ex: Simplifying Radicals Adding and Subtracting

Exponent Rules and Imaginary Numbers - with multiplying and dividing square roots if we have time
Imaginary Numbers • Can you take the square root of a negative number? • Ex: → what number times itself () gives you a negative 4? • Can u take the cubed root of a negative number? • Ex: → what number times itself, and times () itself again gives you a negative 8? • The imaginary unit iis used to represent the non-real value, . • An imaginary number is any number of the form bi, where b is a real number, i= , and b ≠ 0.
Exponent Rules Zero Exponent Property Negative Exponent Property A negative exponent of a number is equal to the reciprocal of the positive exponent of the number. • A base raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1. • a0 = 1
Exponent Rules Product of Powers Property Quotient of Powers Property To divide powers with the same base, subtract the exponents. • To multiply powers with the same base, add the exponents.
Exponent Rules Power of a Power Property Power of a Product Property To find the power of a product, distribute the exponent. • To raise one power to another power, multiply the exponents.
Exponent Rules Power of a Quotient Property • To find the power of a quotient, distribute the exponent.

Complex Numbers • All complex numbers are of the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and iis the imaginary unit. The number a is the real part and bi is the imaginary part. • Expressions containing imaginary numbers can also be simplified. • It is customary to put I in front of a radical if it is part of the solution.

Bellringer9/30/14*EQ- What are complex numbers? How can I distinguish between the real and imaginary parts? • 1. How often should we staple our papers together? • When should we turn in homework and where? • When and where should we turn in late work? 4. What are real numbers?
Let’s Review the real number system! • Rational numbers • Integers • Whole Numbers • Natural Numbers • Irrational Numbers
Now we have a new number! Complex Numbers Defined. • Complex numbers are usually written in the form a+bi, where a and b are real numbers and iis defined as . Because does not exist in the set of real numbers I is referred to as the imaginary unit. • If the real part, a, is zero, then the complex number a +bi is just bi, so it is imaginary. • 0 + bi = bi , so it is imaginary • If the real part, b, is zero then the complex number a+bi is just a, so it is real. • a+ 0i =a , so it is real
Examples • Name the real part of the complex number 9 + 16i? • What is the imaginary part of the complex numbers 23 - 6i?
