Now let us discuss about the positive integers whose square root is not an irrational number

For example,

a) square root of 4 is 4=2 which indicates that 2 is irrational.

b)square root of 9 is 9=3 which indicates that 3 is irrational

c)square root of 16 is 16=4 which indicates that 4 is irrational

Therefore, the three positive integers whose square roots are not always irrational are 4, 9 and 16.
