How Do We Compute The Product Of Square Roots?


Before we move forward and learn about Product Of Square Roots, be sure you understand the basics. Recommended reading: Square Roots.
  • The root of a product is the product of the roots.
  • A real example of taking a square root of a product: √(4 × 9) = √4 × √9 = √4√9 = 2 × 3 = 6.
  • Another real example of taking a square root of a product: √192 = √(2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × × 3) = 2 × 2 × 2 × √3 = 8√3. This is a fairly complex example. However, it can easily be solved by computing the Prime Factorization of 192.
  • There is no way to combine the square root sum of two numbers (like we can with products). You can simplify: √(3 + 2) = √5.
  • There is no way to combine the square root difference of two numbers (like we can with products). You can simplify: √(3 - 2) = √1 = 1.

Answer
Yes √192 8√3
Yes 2√(5 × 3) 2√15
Yes √(9 × 16) √9 × √16 = √9√16 = 3 × 4 = 12
No √(5 + 4) √9 = 3
No √(5 - 4) √1 = 1




Please Read! To use this calculator is easy. You can use any input format shown in the table above. You indicate the radical sign with the letter "r". Example 10r(7-3) = 10√(7-4) = 10√3
