Radicals are square roots which are not integers; the square roots of 2 or 3 are examples of radicals. The presenters show simple ways of how to add and subtract such radicals. They explain that by using the method of factoring, the addition or subtraction is made very easy. If the square root of 8, for instance, is in some addition sum, it can be factored into the square root of 4 times the square root 2. Since we know that the square root of 4 is 2 this can be simplified to be 2 times the s...

In this instance we are going to Find the circumference of a circle by applying formula C=2pr where 'C' is circumference of a circle, approximate value of 'p' is 3.14 because it is irrational number and 'r' stands for radius i.e. half of diameter. So by applying this formula we can easily calculate circumference of a circle if radius is given or we can also calculate radius if circumference of a circle is given. One thing to remember is that unit we use for circumference of a circle is cm, in...
This is the video about how to add a rational expression. So to add a rational expression first of all find the common denominator. To find the common denominator, just find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. There are at least a couple ways of doing this. To convert each fraction to the common denominator, you multiply each denominator by what it needs in order to turn it into 6x. For instance, in the x+4/5x, the denominator needs to be multiplied by 6x, since 6xX5x = 30x. ...

For instance when this HCL comes in contact with metals various reaction take place depending up on the metal. Like i...
This video shows how to multiply similar radicals. The basics of doing this is to multiply the root of the radicals. For instance, if you have the cubed root of 14 multiplied by the cubed root of 3, you would only multiply the root numbers. Thus, your answer would be the cubed root of 42. The exercises in this video show a few basic examples, but they can help you down the road when completing more complex problems that involve multiplying similar radicals.
