a/b = /b a Surds KUS objectives BAT simplify Surds in different types of problems Simplify Challenge Draw a line with a length of exactly 5 units

B A Click for a hint: C WB22 Pythagoras reminder B Find length BC and express your answer as an exact simplified value 6 BC2 = 62 + 42 BC = 52 BC = 4 13 BC = 2 13
