🎬 Video Tutorial

  • (0:01) Multiplication Rule for Square Roots: For non-negative numbers $a$ and $b$, use formula $\sqrt{a \times b} = \sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{b}$ .
  • (0:17) Division Rule for Square Roots: For non-negative $a$ and $b > 0$, $\large \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}} = \frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}}$ .
  • (1:03) Applying the Rules for Simplification: Break down the square root into manageable parts. For example: $\sqrt{18} = \sqrt{9} \times \sqrt{2} = 3\sqrt{2}$ .
  • (2:25) Using the Division Rule for Fractions: Example: $\large \sqrt{\frac{36}{25}} = \frac{\sqrt{36}}{\sqrt{25}} = \frac{6}{5}$ , making division of square roots simpler.
