Understanding Roots and Radicals

This document describes the properties and operations with roots. It includes how to express a root as a power, multiply and divide roots with the same index, raise a root to a power, extract the root of a power, and amplify the index and exponent of a root. It also explains how to rationalize denominators that contain roots.
