1)  

  What is the positive square root of  1600

Answer: 40


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 1600.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 1600.

The number 402 squared equals 1600.

1600 = 40 × 40 = 1600

So  the positive  1600   is  40.



2)  

  What is  121 

Answer: -11


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 121.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 121.

The number -112 squared equals 121.

121 = -11 × -11 = 121

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

So   121   is  -11.



3)  

  What is  144 

Answer: 12


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 144.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 144.

The number 122 squared equals 144.

144 = 12 × 12 = 144

So   144   is  12.



4)  

  What is the positive square root of  9216

Answer: 96


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 9216.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 9216.

The number 962 squared equals 9216.

9216 = 96 × 96 = 9216

So  the positive  9216   is  96.



5)  

  What is  576 

Answer: -24


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 576.

Figure out which number squared (multiplied by itself) equals 576.

The number -242 squared equals 576.

576 = -24 × -24 = 576

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

So   576   is  -24.



6)  

  What is  324 

Answer: 18


SOLUTION 1 :

Remember:

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