Index laws are the grammar of algebra — everything from calculus to logarithms assumes you can manipulate powers fluently. Surds are just fractional indices wearing a different notation. This is the real knowscape from knowhere, not a picture of one. Drag it. Watch what actually changes.
Every equation is a locked box, and every technique is one legal move that keeps the sides equal while you strip the unknown bare. Index laws, logs, the factor theorem — change the form, never the truth, until x has nowhere to hide.
Index laws govern how to combine powers during multiplication, division, and raising to powers, while surds are just fractional or irrational indices that obey exactly the same rules once you recognise the equivalence.
knowhere maps every concept to what it rests on and what rests on it — 0 underneath this one, 1 built on top. Each one says why, in a sentence, not as an arrow on a diagram.
Each one is its own knowscape in the app — built for how a particular student takes things in, not one explanation handed to everybody.
Every HSC and VCE concept in knowhere is built like this one — mapped to your curriculum, never capped by it. Free for a week. No card tricks, no lecture.
Free for a week, then $49 once — the 2026 exam pass ends itself after the last exam. 0 days of the pass left.
Free for a week, then a plan you can stop any time.
