- 3. The number or expression under the radical symbol (the square root or cube root sign) is referred to as the radicand.
- 4. A relationship between two variables where their values change inversely or opposite to each other.
- 7. The number written above the radical symbol, indicating which root is being taken (e.g., the index of a square root is 2).
- 12. A value that remains unchanged throughout an equation or mathematical relationship.
