42. Week 4 Day 1 RADICAL EQUATIONS Radical Equations are equations in which the variable is inside aradical (that is square root, cube root, or higher root).
43. Week 4 Day 1 RADICAL EQUATIONS Steps in solving radical equations: Isolate the term with a radical on one side. Raise both (entire)sides of the equation to the power that will eliminate this radical and simplify the equation. If a radical remains, repeat steps 1 and 2. Solve the resulting linear or quadratic equation. Check the solutions and eliminate any extraneous solutions. Note: When both sides of the equations are squared extraneous solutions can arise , thus checking is part of the solution.
