CCGPS standards addressed in this topic:
MGSE8.EE.2 Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations. Recognize that x2 = p (where p
number and lxl < 25) has 2 solutions and x3 = p (where p is a negative or positive rational number and lxl < 10) has one s
square roots of perfect squares < 625 and cube roots of perfect cubes > -1000 and < 1000.
MGSE8.NS.1 Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number h
expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion w
eventually into a rational number.
MGSE8.NS.2 Use rational approximation of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them a
number line, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., estimate π2to the nearest tenth). For example, by truncating the d
√2 (square root of 2), show that √2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get bette
