Radicals How to Simplify Square Roots (& Cube Roots)

Simplify Square Roots and Cube Roots with multiple examples in this video lesson. We discuss 2 different methods for breaking down radicals and writing them in simplified form. The first method involves working with perfect squares and perfect cubes. The second method is based on using a prime factorization tree. Knowing how to work with radical expressions in simplified form comes up in Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2 and beyond as you go through your math classes and is a basic skill you want to master.

We go through some examples together in this video but you can also download the entire worksheet(which comes with the answer key) from Mario's Math Tutoring's TpT store at the link below:
