Solution - Simplifying square roots
sqrt(34)
Step by Step Solution
Simplify : sqrt(34)
Factor 34 into its prime factors
34 = 2 • 17
To simplify a square root, we extract factors which are squares, i.e., factors that are raised to an even exponent.
In our case however, all the factors are only raised to the first power and this means that the square root can not be simplified
The simplified SQRT looks like this:
sqrt (34)
No simplification exists, Root remains :
