How do I simplify: √252+42
I know the answer's √641, but how do I get to it?
25^2=625
4^2=16
625+16=641
So what's the problem?
I'm still getting the hang of square roots multiplying, adding, etc...
How do I multiply (say the question was: √252×42)
Notice that...... √(252 * 42) = √[(25 * 4)2 ] = √ [(100)2 ] = 100
