Two general rules are:1. Not to have a perfect square as a factor within a square root (or perfect cube for cubic roots, etc.) Split it off. Example: root(12) = root(4) x root(3) = 2 x root(3)
2. Often, people try to avoid square roots in the denominator. Example: 1 / root(2). Multiply top and bottom by root(2), to get: root(2) / 2.

electronegative radicals are anions or acid radicals.
Dissimilar radicals refer to expressions that contain different radical terms or roots, often involving different numbers or variables under the radical sign. For example, √2 and √3 are dissimilar radicals because they involve different numbers. These radicals cannot be combined or simplified together in algebraic expressions, unlike similar radicals that share the same root. Understanding dissimilar radicals is important in operations such as addition, subtraction, or simplifying expressions involving radicals.
To multiply radicals, you can use the property that states the product of two square roots is the square root of the product of the numbers under the radicals. For example, √a × √b = √(a × b). If the radicals are the same, you can also combine them: √a × √a = a. Simplify the resulting radical if possible by factoring out perfect squares.

what are irrational and radicals and rationals
Radicals are considered like radicals if they have the same index and the same radicand (the number or expression under the radical sign). For example, ( \sqrt{3} ) and ( \sqrt{12} ) are not like radicals, but ( \sqrt{5} ) and ( 2\sqrt{5} ) are like radicals because they both involve the same radicand, ( 5 ). You can simplify radicals to check if their radicands match, which helps in identifying like radicals.
similar radicals are radicals with desame index and radicand ex: the square root of 5 squared

Oh I hate these! I have quiz tomorrow on them, which stinks. Im in pre-algebra though
Multiply by the conjugate.
