This math unit begins with the foundational skills of simplifying square roots, first without any remaining radicals, and progresses towards more complex manipulations involving variables and the inclusion of radicals in the results. The unit introduces students to basic radical simplification, extracting square factors from under the radical, and then expands to more sophisticated skills such as simplifying expressions that combine integers and radicals through addition, subtraction, and multiplication. As students advance, they practice simplifying radicals that contain squared factors, numerical values, and variables, both with and without a radical remaining, highlighting the application of exponent rules and algebraic manipulations within radical expressions. Towards the end of the unit, students engage in converting fractional exponents to radicals, involving both positive and negative exponents, enhancing their understanding of the relationship between powers and roots, and solidifying their abilities in handling expressions involving radicals across various complexities.
