Factoring out the square root?

Asked by Sloane2024 (1879points) August 28th, 2008

I’m incredibly and profusely sorry for the “homework” question, but I’ve searched all my available sources for an answer to my inquiry. I have a trig test tomorrow and am utterly confused on how to factor out a square root. The exact problem is finding if there is any number that will factor out of 448. This isn’t the entire problem, considering that I must find the 6 trigonometric functions of a 30–60-90 triangle, so this isn’t a scenario of helping me “slide off easy”. I honestly need the help, and any demonstrations or links would be immensely appreciated. Thank you.
