This is the opposite of the principal fourth root of X.

This represents both fourth roots of X.X4+–

But, what is a root? Square? Cubic? Etc. Let’s continue to find out…

What is the area of the square?

What is the length of the side?

The SQUARE OF A NUMBER is the total of square units used to form a larger square.

The SQUARE ROOT OF A NUMBER is the opposite of the square. It is when you find the lenght of the side in a square with a given number of square units.

May this be generalized for all EVEN INDEXES and POSITIVE RADICANDS?

Because the power is EVEN the result is ALWAYS POSITIVE

In general:

X2 = |X|

The power is 1: ODD

The absolute value makes sure that the result is always POSITIVE if the power of the radicand is even and the resulting output has an ODD POWER.

This comes from an EVEN power in the radicand and its power is an ODD number; but it doesn’t need the absolute value because the Y as radicand in the radical assures that it is always positive to yield a real number.

CONDITIONS TO FULLY SIMPLIFY A RADICAL EXPRESSION:

• The INDEX, is the smallest possible one.

• The RADICAND does not have other factors than 1, which are the nth powers of an integer or polynomial.

• There aren’t any fractions in the denominator.

• There are no radicals left in the denominator.

q and r had absolute value because their indexes were even and their final power was odd. But q by definition has to be positive within the 4th root, therefore, we may remove the absolute value from q, outside the radical, because is redundant.
