What is the conjugate of 5 square root of 10?

a+ square root of b has a conjugate a- square root of b and this is used rationalize the denominator when it contains a square root. If we want to multiply 5 x square root of 10 by something to get rid of the radical you can multiply it by square root of 10. But if we look at 5x( square root of 10 as ) 0+ 5x square root of 10 then the conjugate would be -5x square root of 10


What is 46x X 87y over the square-root of 90?

If you move that 46x over the equals, and if you square both sides, you can get rid of that square root, and do the equation normally. do the math


What is 3 over the square root of 5?

You can get a decimal approximation with a calculator, with Excel, etc. But if you want to keep it as a square root, the "standard form" is considered to be one that has no square roots in the denominator. In this case, to get rid of the square root in the denominator, you multiply both numerator and denominator by the square root of 5, with the following result: 3 / root(5) = 3 root(5) / root(5) x root(5) = 3 root(5) / 5 That is, three times the square root of 5, divided by 5.


Square root in denominator?

I will use "root" as a symbol for square root. I assume you want to get rid of the square root in the denominator; this will usually bring some square root into the numerator.If you have the square root by itself, or as a factor, multiply numerator and denominator by this square root. Example:3 / root(2) = 3 x root(2) / root(2) x root(2) = 3 x root(2) / 2.If the square root is added or subtracted with something else, multiply with a "complement", as in the following example:1 / root(2) + 5The "complement" is the same expression, but changing the plus sign to a minus sign. Multiply numerator and denominator aby root(2) - 5:root(2) - 5 / (root(2) + 5)(root(2) - 5)= (root(2) - 5) / (2 - 25)= (root(2) - 5) / -23= -(root(2) - 5) / 23


What is a principal square root?

The principal square root is the non-negative square root.
