- 5. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers 4 4 = 42 = 16 = 4 Positive square root of 16 (–4)(–4) = (–4)2 = 16 = –4 Negative square root of 16 – A number that is multiplied by itself to form a product is a square root of that product. The radical symbol is used to represent square roots. For nonnegative numbers, the operations of squaring and finding a square root are inverse operations. In other words, for x ≥ 0, Positive real numbers have two square roots.
- 6. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers A perfect square is a number whose positive square root is a whole number. Some examples of perfect squares are shown in the table. 0 02 1 12 100 4 22 9 32 16 42 25 52 36 62 49 72 64 82 81 92 102 The principal square root of a number is the positive square root and is represented by . A negative square root is represented by – . The symbol is used to represent both square roots.
- 7. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers The small number to the left of the root is the index. In a square root, the index is understood to be 2. In other words, is the same as . Writing Math
- 8. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers A number that is raised to the third power to form a product is a cube root of that product. The symbol indicates a cube root. Since 23 = 8, = 2. Similarly, the symbol indicates a fourth root: 2 = 16, so = 2.

- 19. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers Square roots of numbers that are not perfect squares, such as 15, are not whole numbers. A calculator can approximate the value of as 3.872983346... Without a calculator, you can use square roots of perfect squares to help estimate the square roots of other numbers.
- 20. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers Additional Example 3: Art Application As part of her art project, Shonda will need to make a paper square covered in glitter. Her tube of glitter covers 13 in². Estimate to the nearest tenth the side length of a square with an area of 13 in². Since the area of the square is 13 in², then each side of the square is in. 13 is not a perfect square, so find two consecutive perfect squares that is between: 9 and 16. is between and , or 3 and 4. Refine the estimate.

- 25. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers Real numbers can be classified according to their characteristics. Natural numbers are the counting numbers: 1, 2, 3, … Whole numbers are the natural numbers and zero: 0, 1, 2, 3, … Integers are the whole numbers and their opposites: –3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, 3, …
- 26. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed in the form , where a and b are both integers and b ≠ 0. When expressed as a decimal, a rational number is either a terminating decimal or a repeating decimal. • A terminating decimal has a finite number of digits after the decimal point (for example, 1.25, 2.75, and 4.0). • A repeating decimal has a block of one or more digits after the decimal point that repeat continuously (where all digits are not zeros).
- 27. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers Irrational numbers are all numbers that are not rational. They cannot be expressed in the form where a and b are both integers and b ≠ 0. They are neither terminating decimals nor repeating decimals. For example: 0.10100100010000100000… After the decimal point, this number contains 1 followed by one 0, and then 1 followed by two 0’s, and then 1 followed by three 0’s, and so on. This decimal neither terminates nor repeats, so it is an irrational number.
- 28. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers If a whole number is not a perfect square, then its square root is irrational. For example, 2 is not a perfect square and is irrational.
- 29. 1-5 Roots and Irrational Numbers The real numbers are made up of all rational and irrational numbers.
