What is the square root of 6 in simplifying radicals?

sqrt(6) cannot be simplified.


Why should you simplify each radical in a radical expression before adding?

It is easier to work with simplified radicals just as it is easier to work with simplified fractions. A fundamental rule for math is to simplify whenever possible, as much as possible.


Which types of radicals can be evaluated or estimated?

All of them.


How do you add radicals?

It does indeed seem like there should be a rule for adding radicals. There are rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing whole numbers, and there are rules for multiplying and dividing radicals. However, there is no "rule" for adding radicals. For example, sqrt(2)+sqrt(3) does NOT equal sqrt(5), sqrt(6), or any other "radical" you could think of. In a professional research paper (and on any exam you may take) an answer of sqrt(2)+sqrt(3) would be a proper answer (assuming it is correct). However, a number like sqrt(4)+sqrt(1) can be simplified. This is simply 3. Essentially, if a radical has no "nice square root" it cannot be simplified. It is important to note, however, that an expression like sqrt(2)+sqrt(8) can be simplified. Since sqrt(8)=sqrt(4)sqrt(2)=2sqrt(2), the desired quantity could be simplified to 3sqrt(2). I hope this was quite informative, and in time to help!

What are 2 radicals similar?

2 radicals are similar (like terms) if, when in simplified form, the index is the same, and the radicand is the same. The coefficient may be different. EX: 3(sq root 2) and 5(sq root 2) are like terms, but 3(cube root 2) is not a like term for either.
