i'm sort of confused as to how to simplify these and leave them in radical form:
5/√3
(5/√3)2
^^it's supposed to be squared but i can't make the little 2, haha.
help please?
multiply top and bottom by sqrt3
5*sqrt3/3
5^2/(sqrt3)^2=25/3
FTR, you can use the ^ (shift 6) to signify an exponent. Hope this helps!
5/sqrt(3) = 5*sqrt(3)/sqrt(3)*sqrt(3) = (5/3)*sqrt(3)
(5/sqrt(3))^2 = (5^2)/(sqrt(3))^2 = 25/3
5/sqrt(3)
= (5*sqrt(3)) / (sqrt(3) * sqrt(3))
= (5*sqrt(3)) / (sqrt(3*3))
= (5*sqrt(3)) / (sqrt(9))
= (5*sqrt(3)) / 3
(5/sqrt(3))^2
= (5^2) / ((sqrt(3))^2)
= 25 / 3
