Root Properties and Rules

Square Root Properties

√(a × b) = √a × √b
√(a ÷ b) = √a ÷ √b
√a² = |a|
√a × √a = a (for a ≥ 0)

Cube Root Properties

∛(a × b) = ∛a × ∛b
∛(a ÷ b) = ∛a ÷ ∛b
∛a³ = a
∛(-a) = -∛a

General Rules

ⁿ√(aᵐ) = a^(m/n)
ⁿ√a × ⁿ√b = ⁿ√(a × b)
(ⁿ√a)ⁿ = a
ⁿ√ᵐ√a = ⁿᵐ√a

Important Notes

• Even roots of negative numbers are undefined in real numbers
• Odd roots of negative numbers are negative
• √0 = 0 and ⁿ√0 = 0
• √1 = 1 and ⁿ√1 = 1
