  2. Radical Equations Radical equations can be transformed into quadratics to solve.

  3. Solve Isolate one of the radicals before squaring both sides

  4. Solve:

  5. EXAMPLE 2 2 ( ) NO SOLUTION Since 16 doesn’t plug in as a solution. Note: You will get Extraneous Solutions from time to time – always do a quick check Let’s Double Check that this works

  6. Can graphing calculators help? SURE! • Input for Y1 • Input x-2 for Y2 • Graph • Find the points of intersection One Solution at (4, 2) To see if this is extraneous or not, plug the x value back into the equation. Does it work?

  7. Higher Degree Equations Higher degree equations can be solved using quadratic methods Rewrite the equation in terms of a second degree variable

  8. Solve the following equation: We can rewrite the equation in terms of x2. Substitute u to represent x2. Solve using a quadratic method. Put the x2 back in for u.

  9. Solve
