Real Number System
Important subsets of the real numbers are: the natural numbers, the whole numbers, the integers, the rationals, and the irrationals.
The number line can be used to graph sets of numbers.
Each positive number has 2 square roots. The positive one is called the principal square root.
Use decimal approximations of irrational numbers to compare and order a set of real numbers that includes some irrationals.
