Question 1.
Find the square root:
i. 625
ii. 1225
iii. 289
iv. 4096
v. 1089
Solution:
i. 625
∴ 625 = 5 x 5 x 5 x 5
∴ √625 = 5 x 5 = 25
ii. 1225
∴ 1225 = 5 x 5 x 7 x 7
∴ √1225 = 5 x 7 = 35
iii. 289
∴ 289 = 17 x 17
∴ √289 = 17
iv. 4096
∴ 4096 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
∴ √4096 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
= 64
v. 1089
∴ 1089 = 3 x 3 x 11 x 11
∴ √1089 = 3 x 11
= 33
