Real Numbers and Surds

Use exact forms when possible and approximate only when the task requires a decimal.

Key ideas

  • rational/irrational
  • surds
  • roots
  • approximation
  • number comparison

Worked example: √50 = 5√2.

Common trap: Do not replace an exact surd with a rounded decimal too early.

Key words

real number — any number on the number line
rational — ratio of integers
irrational — not a ratio of integers
surd — irrational root kept in exact form
approximation — nearby value
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 30 attempts on the same browser.
