Infinite surd is a term used in mathematics. The definition of an infinite surd is a never ending irrational number with an exact value that would be left in square root form.
A surd in the form a√b cannot, in general, be simplified.
If an infinite surd is like (√(6+√(6+√(6+√(6...),to solve it, follow these steps: Set x = √(6+√(6+√(6+√(6... therefore x2 = 6+√(6+√(6+√(6+√(6... therefore x2 = 6+x therefore 6+x-x2 = 0. Factorising the expression gives you (-x+3)(x+2)=0 Only the positive answer need be concerned with: -x+3=0 therefore -x = -3 therefore x = 3.
Irrational rootsRoots that are irrational are called surds. Irrational numbers are decimals that neither repeat nor terminate. But not all roots are surds. Sqrt(4) is not a surd, because sqrt(4) is + or - 2, which is rational. On the other hand, sqrt(2) is a surd, and that's because the square root of two is irrational.A surd is a number that cannot be changed into a fraction. They go on infinitely without any pattern.
A surd is a square root which cannot be reduced to a whole number: however you need to be able to simplify them.
YES!!! sqrt(8) - 2*sqrt(2) NB '*' means 'Multiply'.

the same way you find chuck Norris
Yes it is a surd
If the value of the surd is positive, then it will be another surd. Otherwise it will be a complex number.
'pi' is not a 'surd' because it is not a 'square root' of any number. 'pi' is an IRRATIONAL number. Irrational numbers are those were the decimals go to infinity AND the decinal digits are not in any regular order. pi = 3.141592654.... (recur to infinity and no regular order0. 'pi' in surd form is sqrt(pi) = sqrt(3.141592654....) = 1.772453851..... (which is also irrational). In school/college etc., you are given 'pi = 3.14 , 3.1416 , 22/7' Tese are only APPROXIMATIONS for ease of calculating. 'Super Dupa' computers have calculated 'pi' to at least 50 billion places and still going. NB A decimal number such as 1.33333.... is NOT irrational. It is RATIONAL , because it can be converted to a ration/quotient/fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be converted to an exact value 'ratio/quotient/fraction'. Notice the decimal digits are in a regular order of '3'....
I am pretty sure that the cube root of negative seven is a surd. I checked on the calculator.......and it showed a negative number.....??I think when it is not a surd...it's supposed to say error, so the number probably means that it is a surd..
No. It is not a criminal or civil offence!
NO!!!! 'pi' is an IRRATIONAL number. Casually, an irrational number is one that recurs to infinity, AND there is NO regular order in the decimal digits. e.g. pi = 3.141592..... but pi ~ 3.14, or 3.1416, or 22/7 ( these are only approximations (~)). However, 3.33333... is RATIONAL because, whilst the decimals go to infinity, they are are in a regular order of '3'.
