g9 3q Simplifying Radicals

This document provides instructions on simplifying radical expressions using the laws of radicals. It begins by stating the objectives of being able to simplify radical expressions, find principal roots, and solve problems involving radicals. It then explains the three laws of radicals: 1) the factor of the radicand can be separated into different radicals using the same indices, 2) the numerator and denominator can be separated into two radical expressions using the same indices, and 3) multiplying indices. Examples are provided for each law. The document concludes by providing examples of simplifying radical expressions with variables.

SIMPLIFYING

RADICALS
MATHEMATICS IX
Objectives:
At the end of the lesson 90% of the
students should be able to:
• Simplify radical expressions using the
laws of radicals.
• Find the principal root of a number.
• Solve problems involving radicals.
Simplifying Radical Expression
•It is the process of manipulating a radical expression into
an alternate and more simplified form.

•It is the process of simplifying expressions applied to


radicals.
