In surd form, square roots need to be have the same radical term before you can add or subtract them. However, unlike in algebraic expressions, it is possible to add or subtract square roots using approximate (decimal) values.
The second root would be the negative of the principal root.
Imaginary numbers are only ever used when you are using the square roots of negative numbers. The square root of -1 is i. You may find imaginary numbers when you are finding roots of equations.
In a way. You can multiply top and bottom by the square root of 2. This will not exactly make the expression simpler, but you'll get rid of the square root in the denominator (and transfer it to the numerator); this is considered to be the standard form for expressions which involve square roots. In other words, there should be no square roots in the denominator.
It means it is not an algebraic number. Algebraic numbers include square roots, cubic roots, etc., but more generally, algebraic numbers are solutions of polynomial equations.
actoring, using the square roots, completing the square and the quadratic formula.
Using the quadratic equation formula or completing the square
Because it's part of the quadratic equation formula in finding the roots of a quadratic equation.
The principle square root of 64 is ±8.8.* * * * *The square roots of 64 are +8 and -8.The PRINCIPAL square root is the positive root, +8.So, the answer to the question that was asked is +8 not ±8.

Addition, subtraction signs, brackets, squares and powers, square roots and roots, fractions. Random variables are also used, like x.

radical equations have sq roots, cube roots etc. Quadratic equations have x2.
An irrational expression is a mathematical expression that contains one or more irrational numbers, such as square roots of non-perfect squares or numbers that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction. These expressions cannot be simplified to a finite decimal or fraction.
