simplify by removing factors from radicand:
:
sqrt%28288%29
Factor to reveal a perfect square 12^2 = 144
sqrt%28144%2A2%29
12%2Asqrt%282%29
:
3sqrt%28500%29
Factor to reveal a perfect cube, 5^3 = 125
3sqrt%28125%2A4%29
5%2A3sqrt%284%29
:
3sqrt%28-250%29
factor; -5^3 = -250
3sqrt%28-125%2A2%29
-5%2A3sqrt%282%29
:
4sqrt%28192%29
factor; 2^4 = 16
4sqrt%2816%2A12%29
2%2A4sqrt%2812%29
