Module 4

Rational
Exponents
and
Radicals
Lessons: 1. Zero, Negative Integral
and Rational Exponents
2. Radicals
3. Solving Radical Equations
Priming
1. Have you ever wondered about how to
identify the side lengths of a square lot
if you know its area?
2. Have you tried solving for the length of
any side of a right triangle?
3. Has it come to your mind how you can
find the radius of a cylindrical water
tank given its volume?
Recall: Laws of Exponents

Zero Exponent Negative Exponent


a0 = 1 = 1, if m= n a− = 1/a

1
a− = a
Drill Simplify using laws of exponents
1) 3x0 =3
2) ( - 3x ) 0 =1

In the previous lesson, expressions
with rational exponents (fractional
exponents) are expressions with
exponents that are rational. Radicals
and expressions with rational
exponents are alternate ways of
expressing the same thing.
A radical expression is an algebraic
expression written in the form √a .
n

The symbol √𝒂 is called the radical


sign, a is the radicand and n is the
index.
Radical Expression

A radical expression or radical is an


expression containing the symbol
which is called radical sign. In symbols
, n is called index or order and am is
called the radicand.
Convert Expressions with
Rational Exponent into Radicals
If we apply the laws of exponents,
we can see there are two possible
ways to change an expression with
fractional exponent into a radical
expression.
𝑎 =(𝑎 )𝑚=(√𝑎 )𝑚 or 𝑎 =(𝑎𝑚) =√𝑎𝑚
𝑚𝑛 1𝑛 𝑛 𝑚𝑛 1𝑛

All RULES that apply to whole number


exponents, also apply to fractional
exponents.
Change the following into
radical form

1. 5x ½ =5
2. ( 3 mn2 ) 2/3 =39 2 4
3. ( 2n2 ) ¾ =
4
8 6

4. ( x2 + 3 ) 1/3
( x2 – 3 ) – 1/3 =
Change the following into
exponential form

3 = 3 ( 2x3 ) 1/2
1. 3 2
2. =

3. = (4r2 s3 t4 ) 2/5
Laws of Radicals

The simplified form of radical


expression would
require;
• No prime factors of a radicand has an exponent
equal or greater than the index.
• No radicand contains a fraction
• No denominator contains a radical sign.
Simplify the following

a. 2 50 3 = 10x 2
b. 4 3 6 10 = 2xy3z5
c. 20 32 15 5 =42 3

3 −64
d. 6
=-4
x2
Addition and subtraction
of radicals
We add or subtract by
combining the similar/like radicals

1. 5 6 + 9 6 − 8 6 = 6 6

2. 20 3 −10 4 + 4 − 53 =153 − 94

3. 2 27 + 3 48 − 4 12 = 10 3
Multiplication of radicals

1. = 42

5)(5- 5 ) =5+3 5
2. ( 2 +
6 108
3. = 5
Division of radicals

1. 4 3 2 ÷ 6 3 4 = 3 4/3

2. 3 ÷ ( 3 − 2) =3 3+3 2

3. 6 3 3 ÷ 3 = 2 6 243
Radical Equation
It is an equation in which the variable
appears in a radicand.
Solve for x

1. x–6= = 9 is the only solution


4 is extraneous root
2. 4+ − 2 = x = 6 is the only solution
3
3 is extraneous root
3. 3 +1=2 = - 19/27
Problem Solving

A woman walks 5 meters to the east


going to school and then walks 9 meters
northward going to the church. How far is
she from the starting point which is her
house? Express your answer in radical
form.
