Today’s Objective: I understand the meaning of radicals and how they are treated in mathematical operations.
When we speak of something being radical in everyday language, what do we mean? Fundamental Extreme Cool! Unusual
What is a perfect square? Perfect square: the square of a natural number (a counting number)
Mathematical Definition of Radical: An expression that uses a root. A square root is a number that when multiplied by itself, gives that number. A cube root is a number that when multiplied by itself 3 times, gives that number.
Simplifying radicals means there are no numbers that are perfect squares under the radical.

Simplifying radicals means there are no numbers that are perfect squares under the radical.
Sometimes it’s not easy to see perfect squares. In that case, create a prime factor tree. 3 3
