The square root of

√(4 29/29) = √(225/49) = 15/7

(iv) 2 14/25

The square root of

√(2 14/25) = √(64/25) = 8/5

(v) 2 137/196

The square root of

√2 137/196 = √ (529/196) = 23/14

(vi) 23 26/121

The square root of

√(23 26/121) = √(2809/121) = 53/11

(vii) 25 544/729

The square root of

√(25 544/729) = √(18769/729) = 137/27

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 = √(5×3×3) × √(5×2×2)

By using the formula √a × √b = √(a×b)

= √(5×3×3×5×2×2)

= 5 × 3 × 2

= 30

3. The area of a square field is 80 244/729 square metres. Find the length of each side of the field.

Solution:

We know that the given area = 80 244/729 m2

= 58564/729 m2

If L is the length of each side

L2 = 58564/729

L = √ (58564/729) = √58564/√729

= 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 1/4 m2

= 121/4 m2

If L is the length of each side, then,

L2 = 121/4

L = √(121/4)  = √121/√4

= 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 the square, L2 = 24336 m2

L = √24336

= 156 m

∴ The length of the side of the square playground is 156 m.
