How To get rid of radicals in the denominator by multiplying the fraction by a helpful form of?
If there is only the radical, sqrt(b), in the denominator, the form of the fraction is sqrt(b)/sqrt(b).If the denominator is of the form a + sqrt(b) then the form of the fraction is [a - sqrt(b)]/[a - sqrt(b)].
It is also possible to use [-a + sqrt(b)]/[-a + sqrt(b)], and this form may be preferred is a^2 < b.
