[Algebra 2] [Unit 4] [Radical Functions]
Enduring understanding (Big Idea): Students will understand how radical expressions and radical equations are used
in real – world situations. Students will compare the domain of a radical function with the domain of other functions.
Essential Questions: How do I solve a radical equation? What is a complex number? How are complex numbers used to
solve equations? How do you add, subtract, or multiply complex numbers? Do all solutions found for an equation make
sense in terms of the problem? How does the domain of a radical function compare with domains of other functions? When
are radical expressions used in real-world situations?
BY THE END OF THIS UNIT:
Students will know…
 The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
Vocabulary: Radicals, roots, Imaginary number,
complex number, complex conjugates, complex roots

Students will be able to…
 Computationally manipulate radical and complex numbers
 Solve equations for ALL possible solutions
 Determine the validity of solutions

3. Construct viable arguments.
4. Model with Mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
6. Attend to precision.
