2. Find the value of:
(i) √80/√405
(ii) √441/√625
(iii) √1587/√1728
(iv) √72 ×√338
(v) √45 × √20
Solution:
(i) √80/√405
√80/√405 = √16/√81 = 4/9
(ii) √441/√625
√441/√625 = 21/25
(iii) √1587/√1728
√1587/√1728 = √529/√576 = 23/24
(iv) √72 ×√338
√72 ×√338 = √(2×2×2×3×3) ×√(2×13×13)
By using the formula √a × √b = √(a×b)
= √(2×2×2×3×3×2×13×13)
= 22 × 3 × 13
= 156
(v) √45 × √20
√45 × √20 = √(5×9×9) × √(5×2×2)
By using the formula √a × √b = √(a×b)
= √(5×9×9×5×2×2)
= 5 × 9 × 2
= 90
3. The area of a square field is 80 244/729Â square metres. Find the length of each side of the field.
Solution:
We know that the given area = 80 244/729Â m2
=Â 58564/729Â m2
If L is length of each side
L2Â =Â 58564/729
L = √ (58564/729) = √58564/√729
=Â 242/27
= 8 26/27
∴ Length is 8 26/27
4. The area of a square field is 30 1/4m2. Calculate the length of the side of the square.
Solution:
We know that the given area = 30 1/4Â m2
=Â 121/4Â m2
If L is length of each side then,
L2Â =Â 121/4
L = √(121/4)  = √121/√4
=Â 11/2
∴ Length is 11/2
5. Find the length of a side of a square playground whose area is equal to the area of a rectangular field of dimensions 72m and 338 m.
Solution:
By using the formula
Area of rectangular field = l × b
= 72 × 338 m2
= 24336 m2
Area of square, L2Â = 24336 m2
L = √24336
= 156 m
∴ Length of side of square playground is 156 m.
