9.3 Simplifying Radical Expressions
Use the Product Rule for Radicals
Cannot be simplified using the product rule because the indexes, are different.

The Distance Formula
The distance formula, which allows us to compute the distance between two points in the coordinate plane is derived from the Pythagorean formula. Find the distance between (1, 6) and (4, –2).
