What is the square root of a square?

√(a^2) That is |a| (the absolute value of a) Because if a is positive, a^2 is positive, and since √ is a positive square root, √(a^2) is a. If a is negative, a^2 is positive, and since √ is a positive square root, √(a^2) is -a. So if a is positive, √(a^2) is positive (which is a) If a is negative, √(a^2) is also positive (which is -a) So √(a^2) is |a| for every a.

What does a negative add a positive equal?

If the absolute value of the negative is bigger than that of the positive, then the answer is negative. If the absolute value of the negative is the same, then zero. If the absolute value of the negative is smaller, then positive. Absolute value is the value ignoring the sign.


A teacher wrote two numbers on the board negative 10 and positive 7 On the lines below explain which number has the larger absolute value and why?

Negative 10 because the absolute value of a number is the positive and negative form of that number. For example: The absolute value of 9 is positive 9 and negative 9. Therefore, it would be greater than the absolute value of any number below it.
