- Domain
      
        - x on the bottom of a fraction: Set unequal to 0. 
- x in radical: Set greater than or equal to 0. 
- x in radical and on the bottom of a fraction: Set greater than 0. 
 
- Simplest Radical Form
      
        - Break down perfect squares and not perfect 
- Add or subtract - Radicals MUST match. 
 
- Discriminent (What kind of roots?)

            - Divide by 4 and take the remainder to find out which one it is. 
 
 
- Logrithms
      
        - logb mn = logb m + logb n 
- logb (m/n) = logb m − logb n 
- logb n^k = k logb n 
- logb b = 1 
- BEE = Base, equals, exponent
