This math unit on radicals progresses from basic to more complex skills in managing and simplifying radical expressions. Initially, students focus on dividing monomials containing only numeric values, helping them grasp the fundamental principles of manipulating radicals. As the unit progresses, variables are introduced into these expressions, challenging students to apply exponent rules and balance coefficients within radical divisions. Further developing the complexity, the unit transitions to dividing binomials by monomials where, again, the complexity of expressions escalates from numeric to including variables as well. This not only supplements their algebraic skills but also prepares them for advanced operations. By the end of the unit, students are engaged in manipulating and simplifying expressions that involve both square roots and algebraic operations, practicing rationalizing denominators, and combining like terms with a focus on achieving mastery in dividing and simplifying increasingly complex radical expressions. Throughout the unit, multiple-choice questions encourage problem-solving and recognition of correct simplification strategies.
