III. Instructional Procedure

Teacher’s Hint Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
A. Preliminary
Activities Good morning class! How is your
Greetings day so far? Good morning ma’am. We
are fine.
That’s good to hear! So, can I expect
a full blast of energy and active
participation from you?
Yes ma’am!
May I request everyone to please all
Prayer rise and let us feel the presence of
the Lord.
(Student will lead the
prayer)
 Classroom
Management Before you take your seat, arrange
your chairs properly. Kindly pick-up
some pieces of papers and plastics (Students will arrange their
under your chair. chairs and will pick up the
trashes.)
Checking of
attendance May I know who were the absent for
today? None ma’am.
Okay. Very good it’s nice to know
that all of you are here.
B. Review Let’s have a recap on the topic we’ve
discussed last meeting.

Anyone from the class who would

like to share what he/she had
learned about the topic last (students will raise their
meeting? hands)

Yes (student’s name)? Ma’am our last topic is all

about adding radical
expressions.

Okay, when we say similar radical Similar radical means they

what does it mean? have the same coefficient or
radicand.

Okay! Very good!

It seems that you really understand
our topic last meeting.
C. Motivation
As we continue to our discussion, we
will have a short activity called
“Peeling a cabbage”
I have here a cabbage. We’ll sing a
“Bahay Kubo” song and whenever I
say “stop”, the one who’s holding the
cabbage will peel off a layer of
cabbage and answer the radical
written on it.

Am I clear? Yes ma’am.

(the students will perform the

activity)
D. Lesson Proper
Yesterday, we tackled about addition
of radical expressions.
So, addition of radical expression
has similar and dissimilar form. Ma’am it means they have
the same coefficient or
When we say similar radicals, it radicand.
means they have?

Very good. In adding similar radical Ma’am we only add the

expressions what are we going to coefficient and the radicand
add? will stay the same.
Exactly! Now our topic is still about
adding radical expressions, but
today we will focus only on adding
dissimilar radicals.

Are we clear? Yes ma’am.

Dissimilar Radicals
Radicals that are not similar, but
dissimilar radicals may become
similar when simplified.

If the radicand and the index are not

exactly the same, then the radicals
are not similar and we cannot
combine them.

Find the largest factor in the

radicand that is a perfect power of
the index. Rewrite the radicand as a
product of two factors, using that
factor.

Ex.
a. √32+√128
=√16·2 +√64·2
= 4√2+8√2
=12√2

b. √8+√50
=√4·2+√25·2
=2√2+√5√2
=7√2
c. 8√32+2√128
= (8)√16·2+(2)√64·2
=(8)(4)√2+(2)(8)√2
=32√2+16√2
=48√2
d. 3√8+2√50
=(3)√4·2+(2)√25·2
=(3)(2)√2+(2)(5)√2
=6√2+10√2
 =16√2

Is it clear?

E. Generalization Are there any clarification or Yes ma’am.

question regarding our lesson today?

In simplifying the dissimilar Ma’am we need to find the

radicand what are we going to do biggest factor of the
first? radicand that is a perfect
power of the index.

Okay very good.

F. Evaluate

Now we will have a short quiz on

dissimilar radicals.

Direction: Solve the following (answers)

dissimilar radicals.
1. 2√75+2√12 1. 18√3
2. 2√72+ 3√50 2.27√2
3. -4√28+ 2√63 3.-2√7
4. 3√48 +2√75 4. 21√3
5. -7√27+3√75 5. -7√3
