Presentation
Leg Traction
To help align Alexander’s broken bone,
a doctor uses traction as shown in the
figure. A traction is applied by fixing a
weight, two pulleys and some stainless
steel cable to a broken leg. Based on
the setup shown, how many meters
cable are used?

Like or Unlike

Can you give me an example of like radicals?

Like or Unlike

Let’s differentiate like radicals from unlike radicals


Square-root expressions with the same radicand
are examples of like radicals.

Adding and subtracting radicals

Radical expressions can only be added or subtracted if they


have the same index and the same radicand.

1. Combine like radicals by combining the coefficients


of the radical term.
2. Perform the operation (either addition or subtraction)

More on Radicals

Sometimes radicals do not appear to be like until they are


simplified. Simplify all radicals in an expression before
trying to identify like radicals and combining like radicals.

Assignment
Performance Task
Form groups of 3. Each group is tasked to write a real-life problem involving addition and
subtraction of radical expressions. Each group will present their problem in class next meeting.
You may put the problem on a PowerPoint or Video presentation. Make it artistic and unique. If
the other groups fail to solve the problems you presented, you will explain the solution to the
class. Be ready to submit a hardcopy of the problem and its solution to your teacher. Your output
and presentation will be graded using this rubric
