Math Notes- November 19,2012



To determine perfect squares and surds. 











































I noticed that the surds have an odd number of decimals. (Notice the red line on the picture above). If it is a perfect square, it would have an even amount of decimals. 
for example:
 √0.0081 = 0.09² 

There is an even amount of decimals (in this case, there are 

four) which tells me that it's square root is not a surd.
