hartnn (hartnn):

lets start with 40, can you factor 40 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4

hartnn (hartnn):

umm... write all the factors... 40 = 4*10 ok ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok.

hartnn (hartnn):

now use \(\sqrt{ab}=\sqrt a\sqrt b\)

hartnn (hartnn):

so what is \(\sqrt 4\) = ?

hartnn (hartnn):

do u know what square root of 4 is ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2?

hartnn (hartnn):

yup, so \(\huge \sqrt{40}= 2\sqrt{10}\) di u get this ? can u do the remaining ones similarly ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Kind of. Let me try.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

44= 4*12= \[2\sqrt{12}\]

hartnn (hartnn):

44=4*11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Darn! So it is \[2\sqrt{11}\]

hartnn (hartnn):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES! Victory dance!
