Radical Equations - Partner Activity

This is an engaging and collaborative partner activity on solving radical equations. There are two problem pages/slides. Each page/slide consists of four sections. In each section partners are given a radical equation involving one or two parameters. Partners have to solve the equation for given value(s) of the parameter(s). Partner A will solve the equation for one value(s) of the parameter(s) and partner B will solve the same equation for another value(s) of the parameter(s). As the students obtain similar equations in each section they can help each other with methods. There are included equations with extraneous solutions.

This product can be completed individually as well. Some of the problems (for instance the problems of partner A) can be solved as classwork and the other (the problems of partner B) can be solved as homework.

Students can record their answers on the next two pages/slides in tables.

Answer key pages/slides are two and they are contained at the end of this document.

NOTE: This product is created as a Google Slides product. I have converted it to PDF item here. I have included 2 PDF files - the one has each slide as a page and the other has two slides on a page for easy and more economic printing!
