I. Review
A. Recall similar and dissimilar fractions.
B. Recall similar terms in algebra.
B. Recall the parts of radical expression.

II. Lesson Proper

Discussion on adding and subtracting of radicals. There are two

keys to combining radicals by addition or subtraction: look at the index, and
look at the radicand. If these are the same, then addition and subtraction are
possible. If not, then you cannot combine the two radicals.

Examples will be presented.
