Simplify each expression. If the expression does not represent a real number say so.
a. square root of -a^2
b. square root of (-a)^2
c. index=4 square root of a^4
d. square root of a^6 This question is from textbook Algebra and Trigonometry Structure and Method book 2
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a. square root of -a^2
.
b. square root of (-a)^2
.
c. index=4 square root of a^4
I'm assuming you want the "fourth root" of a^4
Because a^4 = a*a*a*a
then the fourth root of a^4= a
.
d. square root of a^6
