Rational Square Roots
Lesson 9-3
You need to
memorize at least the
first 15 perfect
squares.

1 = 1
81 = 9
4 = 2
100 = 10
9 = 3
121 = 11
16 = 4
144 = 12
25 = 5
169 = 13
36 = 6

Radical Sign
The is called
 the radical
sign.
The number under the
radical is called the
radicand. In 25 ,25 is the
radicand.
Steps

1.Simplify if you know
the square root.
2.Use the Hockey Stick
Method if necessary.
Factor Tree Method

Irrational numbers cannot
be written as a fraction.
They are non-terminating,
non-repeating decimals.
Example: √67
Irrational Numbers
Find two consecutive whole numbers that
the given square root is between. (Try to
do this without using the table).
18
16 = 4 and 25 = 5
so
18 is between 4 and 5
115
100 = 10 and 121 = 11
so
115 is between 10 and 11
Steps for Simplifying
1. Look for perfect square factors
using a factor tree.
2. Pull out all squares
3. Leave factors with no square
root under the radical.

Simplified Radical Form
No factor inside the radical should be a perfect square.
