Square Root of 2024

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

If a number is multiplied by the same number, the result is a square. The inverse of the square is a square root. The square root is used in the field of vehicle design, finance, etc. Here, we will discuss the square root of 2024.

What is the Square Root of 2024?

The square root is the inverse of the square of the number. 2024 is a perfect square. The square root of 2024 is expressed in both radical and exponential form. In the radical form, it is expressed as √2024, whereas (2024)^(1/2) in the exponential form. √2024 = 44, which is a rational number because it can be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.

Finding the Square Root of 2024

The prime factorization method is used for perfect square numbers. This method helps in breaking down the number into its prime factors. Let us now learn the following methods:

 

  • Prime factorization method
  • Long division method
  • Approximation method

Square Root of 2024 by Prime Factorization Method

The product of prime factors is the prime factorization of a number. Now let us look at how 2024 is broken down into its prime factors.

 

Step 1: Finding the prime factors of 2024

 

Breaking it down, we get 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 7: 2^4 x 3^2 x 7^2

 

Step 2: Now we found the prime factors of 2024. Since 2024 is a perfect square, we can pair the prime factors as (2^2 x 3 x 7)^2 = (4 x 3 x 7)^2.

 

Step 3: Calculate the square root by taking one number from each pair, resulting in 4 x 3 x 7 = 84.

Square Root of 2024 by Long Division Method

The long division method is used for non-perfect square numbers, but it can also be applied to perfect squares to verify results. Here’s how to find the square root using the long division method:

 

Step 1: Group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 2024, we group it as 20 and 24.

 

Step 2: Now find a number whose square is less than or equal to 20. We can say the number is 4 because 4 x 4 = 16. Subtract 16 from 20 to get a remainder of 4.

 

Step 3: Bring down 24, making the new dividend 424.

 

Step 4: Double the quotient to get the new divisor, 8. Find a number that fits as the next digit of the quotient multiplied by this divisor that is less than or equal to 424.

 

Step 5: The number is 4, as 84 x 4 = 336. Subtract 336 from 424 to get the remainder 88.

 

Step 6: Add a decimal point and bring down two zeros at a time. Repeat the division process to get more decimal places if needed.

 

However, since 2024 is a perfect square, the process stops here, confirming the square root as 44.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Square Root of 2024 by Approximation Method

Approximation method is typically used for non-perfect squares but can be used for understanding. However, since 2024 is a perfect square, the approximation method would directly confirm the value.

 

Step 1: The closest perfect squares to 2024 are 1936 (44^2) and 2116 (46^2). Since 2024 is exactly between these, the square root is exactly 44.

Forgetting about the negative square root

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

It is important to make students aware that a number has both positive and negative square roots. However, we usually take only the positive square root, as it is the required one.

For example, √2024 = 44, but there is also -44, which should not be forgotten.

Square Root of 2024 Examples

Ray, the Character from BrightChamps Explaining Math Concepts
Max, the Girl Character from BrightChamps

Problem 1

Can you help Max find the area of a square box if its side length is given as √2024?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The area of the square is 2024 square units.

Explanation

The area of the square = side^2.

The side length is given as √2024.

Area of the square = side^2 = √2024 x √2024 = 44 x 44 = 2024.

Therefore, the area of the square box is 2024 square units.

Problem 2

A square-shaped building measuring 2024 square feet is built; if each of the sides is √2024, what will be the square feet of half of the building?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

1012 square feet

Explanation

We can just divide the given area by 2 as the building is square-shaped.

Dividing 2024 by 2, we get 1012.

So half of the building measures 1012 square feet.

Problem 3

Calculate √2024 x 5.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

220

Explanation

The first step is to find the square root of 2024, which is 44.

The second step is to multiply 44 with 5.

So 44 x 5 = 220.

Problem 4

What will be the square root of (2024 + 9)?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The square root is 45.

Explanation

To find the square root, we need to find the sum of (2024 + 9). 2024 + 9 = 2033, and then 2033 is not a perfect square, but it lies between 45^2 and 46^2.

Thus, the approximate square root of 2033 is ±45.

Problem 5

Find the perimeter of the rectangle if its length ‘l’ is √2024 units and the width ‘w’ is 10 units.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The perimeter of the rectangle is 108 units.

Explanation

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × (length + width).

Perimeter = 2 × (√2024 + 10) = 2 × (44 + 10) = 2 × 54 = 108 units.
