Answer:
36 x⁸y⁶
√2/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor 1296 into its prime factors
1296 = 24 • 34
To simplify a square root, we extract factors which are squares, i.e., factors that are raised to an even exponent.
Factors which will be extracted are :
1296 = 24 • 34
No factors remain inside the root !!
To complete this part of the simplification we take the squre root of the factors which are to be extracted. We do this by dividing their exponents by 2 :
36 = 22 • 32
At the end of this step the partly simplified SQRT looks like this:
36 √(x¹⁶y¹²)
STEP2:Simplify the Variable part of the SQRT
Rules for simplifing variables which may be raised to a power:
(1) variables with no exponent stay inside the radical
(2) variables raised to power 1 or (-1) stay inside the radical
(3) variables raised to an even exponent: Half the exponent taken out, nothing remains inside the radical. examples:
√(x⁸)=x⁴
√(x^-6)=x^-3
Applying these rules to our case we find out that
SQRT(x¹⁶y¹²) = x⁸y⁶
Combine both simplifications
sqrt (1296x¹⁶y¹²) = 36 x⁸y⁶
Simplified Root : 36 x⁸y⁶
