8.EE.2: Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x^2 = p and x^3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that √2 is irrational.

The content I’ve added is a good resource for someone learning about this topic because it shows the basic way of how you determine the value of an imperfect square. It also shows two examples of perfect squares.

 

Something interesting or new that I learned about this topic was how you correctly find the value of an imperfect square. I now want to know how to do the same with an imperfect cube. I think it will be the same proccess.

19-5=14. Square root of 95= 9 and 14/19
