Question

How do you simplify `sqrt52`?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

Use this rule for radicals:

`sqrt(color(red)(a) * color(blue)(b)) = sqrt(color(red)(a)) * sqrt(color(blue)(b))`

`sqrt(52) => sqrt(color(red)(4) * color(blue)(13)) => sqrt(color(red)(4)) * sqrt(color(blue)(13)) => 2sqrt(13)`
