To simplify the square root of 32, we need to find the prime factorization of 32 and then identify pairs of prime factors.<br /><br />The prime factorization of 32 is:<br />\[ 32 = 2 \times 16 = 2 \times 2 \times 8 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 4 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \]<br /><br />So, the prime factorization of 32 is:<br />\[ 32 = 2^5 \]<br /><br />Next, we can rewrite the square root of 32 using its prime factorization:<br />\[ \sqrt{32} = \sqrt{2^5} \]<br /><br />We can simplify this by recognizing that:<br />\[ \sqrt{2^5} = \sqrt{2^4 \times 2} = \sqrt{(2^2)^2 \times 2} = \sqrt{4^2 \times 2} = 4\sqrt{2} \]<br /><br />Therefore, the simplest radical form of \(\sqrt{32}\) is:<br />\[ \boxed{4\sqrt{2}} \]
