Square root of 4096 is 64 and is represented as √4096 = 64. When any positive integer or negative integer is multiplied with itself, the resultant positive integer is termed as the perfect square number and the integer that was multiplied by itself will be called the square root. Symbolically it is represented as “±z × ±z = s”, where ‘z’ is an integer and ‘s’ is the square number. It is read as z is the square root of s. A detailed explanation on square roots can be obtained from Square Root.
Note the Following:
The Square root of 4096 = √4096 where √ = radical, and 4096 is the radicand.
Exponential Form of Square root of 4096 = 40961/2.
Solution for √4096 = 64
Square root of 4096 is Irrational = False

4096 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
4096 = (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2)
√4096 = √((2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2))
√4096 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2
√4096 = 64
Therefore the square root of 4096 = 64.
Square root of 4096 by Long Division Method
In the long division method, the given numbers are paired in groups, starting from the right side. Let us understand the long division method, in detailed steps;
Step 1: Grouping the given number into pairs
Given number is 4096, grouping it as 2 and 56.
Step 2: Consider the first number.
Let us find a square number that divides the first number
i.e 1 × 1 = 1
2 × 2 = 4
3 × 3 = 9.
Step 3: Continue the division using the next number 96. The first number to be used as the next divisor (Divisor of first division multiplied by the quotient of first division)
The Division completes with zero remainder. Hence the quotient is the square root, which is 64 for 4096.
Square root of 4096 by Repeated Subtraction Method.
When a number is subtracted repeatedly, the results can be zero or negative.
To find the square root of a number by the repeated subtraction method, the number 4096 has to be subtracted repeatedly only by odd numbers. Again the results can be
- Difference = zero; Then 4096 is a perfect square. Hence the square root can be determined.
- Difference = negative; Then 4096 is not a perfect square and it has an irrational root.
- Let us observe if 4096 results in zero or negative number, using the subtraction table.
