1)  

  What is the positive square root of  4761

Answer: 69


SOLUTION 1 :

Remember:

To find the square root of a given number, figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals that given number.

Every positive number has both a positive and a negative square root. The radical symbol ( ) means the positive square root.

For example, 9 = 3 *3 since 9 = 32 and 3 is positive.

Solve:

You want to find the positive square root of 4761.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 4761.

The number 692 squared equals 4761.

4761 = 69 × 69 = 4761

So  the positive  4761   is  69.



2)  

  What is  529 

Answer: -23


SOLUTION 1 :

Remember:

To find the square root of a given number, figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals that given number.

Every positive number has both a positive and a negative square root. The radical symbol ( ) means the positive square root.

For example, 9 = 3 since 9 = 32 and 3 is positive.

Solve:

You want to find the positive square root of 529.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 529.

The number -232 squared equals 529.

529 = -23 × -23 = 529

Finally, include the negative sign to get the negative square root.

So   529   is  -23.

Solve:

You want to find the positive square root of 4225.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 4225.

The number 652 squared equals 4225.

4225 = 65 × 65 = 4225

So  the positive  4225   is  65.



5)  

  What is  225 

Answer: -15


SOLUTION 1 :

Remember:

To find the square root of a given number, figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals that given number.

Every positive number has both a positive and a negative square root. The radical symbol ( ) means the positive square root.

For example, 9 = 3 since 9 = 32 and 3 is positive.

Solve:

You want to find the positive square root of 225.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 225.

The number -152 squared equals 225.

225 = -15 × -15 = 225

Finally, include the negative sign to get the negative square root.

So   225   is  -15.



6)
