\n" ); document.write( "Part 1
\n" ); document.write( "sq rt (a) + sq rt (b) = sq rt (a+b)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Part 2

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "My thoughts to the first part, the principal square root of a non-negative number is its non-negative square root the symbol sq rt (a) represents the principal square root of a. Therefore a and b can represent any number...
\n" ); document.write( "Part one is false.
\n" ); document.write( "Part 2 is also false because we would multiply by 1. I am not quite sure if I completely understand...\r

1) False, See Answer 234051.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "2) False, to rationalize you need to yes multiply by 1 but the numerator and denominator have to equal \"%283-sqrt%283%29%29\" since the denominator is \"%283%2Bsqrt%283%29%29\" so that when you multiply it out the square root terms cancel.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%283-sqrt%283%29%29%283%2Bsqrt%283%29%29=9%2B3sqrt%283%29-3sqrt%283%29-3=6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you only multiply by \"sqrt%283%29%7D%7D%2C+then%0D%0A%7B%7B%7Bsqrt%283%29%283%2Bsqrt%283%29%29=3sqrt%283%29%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "You still have a square root in the denominator.
