The first time I tried this problem I found it challenging because I wasn’t able to figure out how I could multiply two radical expressions as I didn’t realize that when multiplying radical expressions with more than one term, you would need to use the foil method, were you multiply term by term. Furthermore, the first time I tried it I just multiplied the first term by the first term and the last term by the last term. Therefore, the strategy I used to help me figure out the problem, was to go through one note and revise all the notes within that unit, in order for me to find the steps needed to solve the problem. At last, the concept I needed to solve the problem was FOIL, therefore, I must make sure to keep in mind that I use FOIL whenever I am multiplying radical expressions.

In Conclusion, the next time I encounter a complex problem, I will go through all my notes so that I can carefully revise and understand all the steps needed to solve the problem.
