simplify the following- square root symbol (long check thing) aka radical sign over (6+3 sqroot 3 minus (-) square root symbol over 6-3 sqroot 3 ) ^2 (everything in parentheses to an exponent of 2) any answers or clue of what im talking about , it would be so much simpler with a square root symbol

You might hate the rigged problem after this, but treat it as a normal FOIL problem (the first nasty sqrt as x and the second as y)

So:
sqrt(6+3sqrt(3)) = x
sqrt(6-3sqrt(3)) = y

(x-y)^2 = x^2 - 2xy + y^2

Well x^2 and y^2 is easy just take away the big sqrt:

(6+3sqrt(3)) - 2xy + (6-3sqrt(3))

Now for the middle term, just multiply the stuff under the radicals, (another FOIL problem):

sqrt( (6+3sqrt3)*(6-3sqrt3) ) = sqrt(36 - 27) = sqrt9 = 3

So now you have:

(6+3sqrt3) + 2(3) + (6-3sqrt3)

Do a little canceling:

6 - 6 + 6 = 6

Deceptively hard.

Assuming that the (6+3√3) and (6-3√3) are in parenthesis I understand this to be your equation:

√([(6+3√3)-(6-3√3)]²)

If this is the case...

The radical and the exponent cancel each other out, therefore we are left with this:

[(6+3√3)-(6-3√3)]

How to solve:

1) Distribute the negative from -(6-3√3) inside the parenthesis
2) Now we have [6+3√3+-6+3√3]
3) The 6's cancel out leaving us with 3√3 + 3√3
4) 3√3 + 3√3 = 6√3

By the way, to insert the radical sign go to Start > Run and type in "charmap" without the quotes. Maybe this will make it easier to ask your question if I didn't interpret it correctly.

If your question is...
√((6 + 3√(3) - √(6) - 3√(3))^2)
Here is how you would solve it...

Notice that inside the problem has a square inside the square root. These two cancel each other out to make...
6 + 3√(3) - √(6) - 3√(3)
Now notice that there are two 3√(3)'s in the problem. There is a positive one and a negative one, so they cancel out to make...
6 - √(6)
This is the simpliest it can go!

Hope I helped!

[√(6 + 3√3) - √(6 - 3√3)]^2 =
6 + 3√3 -2√[36 - 18√3 + 18√3 - 27] + 6 - 3√3 =
6 -2√[36 - 27] + 6 =
6 -2√[9] + 6 =
6 - 6 + 6 =
6

I guess you pretty much mean

( Sqrt [ 6 +3Sqrt[3] ] - Sqrt [ 6 - 3Sqrt[3] ] )^2

where Sqrt = squareroot

Using (a-b)^2 = a^2 +b^2 - 2ab

So we have [ 6 + 3Sqrt[3] ] + [ 6 - 3Sqrt[3] ] - 2Sqrt[ 36 - 9x3 ]
= 12 - 2Sqrt[9]
= 12 - 6 = 6

(root(6+3root3 - root(6-3root3)^2
or 6+3root3 +6-3root3 - 2(root(6+3root3)*(root(6-3root3)
or 12-2(root(36-27)
or 12-2(root9)
or 12-2(3)
or 12-6
or 6 Ans

I oftentimes might enable you to, yet if you consider which you're soliciting for each answer to thirty issues, that basically tells me you published your total homework for somebody else to do for you. with the help of the time you complete typing those up, you ought to've been finished with it. end being so lazy. those issues are so easy that's not even humorous. wager that makes all of us a genius.
