A square root is a number when multiplied by itself gives the original number. The square of a number is represented as X² and the square root of a number is expressed as √x The square root of 104 is represented by √104 Square roots play a vital role in physics to determine the velocity of an object in free fall.
The square root of 97 is approximately ±10.198
The square root of 104 is written as √104 in radical form. In exponential form, it is written as (104)1/2
We can find the square root of 104 through various methods. They are:
i) Prime factorization method
ii) Long division method
iii) Approximation/Estimation method
To find the square root of 104 through the Prime Factorization method, there are various steps involved in the process:
Step 1: To find the square root of 104, first express it in its prime factors.
Here, 104 = 2×2×2×13
Step 2: Simplify the factors further
104 = 23 × 13
Step 3: Apply root on both sides
√104 = √(2×13)
√104 = 2√26
2√26 = 10.198
Therefore, the square root of √104 = 10.198
Finding a square root of 104 by long division method consists of the following steps:
Step 1: Pair the digits by putting a bar above. Starting from the right, we will pair 04 and 1 separately. We will also pair the zeros in decimals in pairs of 2 from left to right.
Step 2: Find a number, when multiplied by itself, gives a product less than or equal to 1. Here it's 1, so place 1 in the quotient and the divisor place will result in the remainder 0.
Step 3: Bring down 4 beside the remainder 0, add the divisor to itself and write it below. 1+1=2
Step 4: Find the remainder and bring down the pair of 0s from the decimal part of the number. Adding X to the divisor, the new divisor remains 20.
Step 5: Repeat the process to get the decimal places you want
Therefore, the √104 = 10.198
Steps to find the square root of 104 by approximation method are:
Step 1: First identify the perfect squares around 104.
We know that
102 = 100
112 = 121
So √104 is between 10 and 11.
Step 2: Since 104 is closer to 100 than 121, we can start by estimating a bit above 10. Let us go with 10.2
10.2×10.2 = 104.04, which is close to 104.
Step 3: To get a more precise value, we can continue with more decimal places
10.192 = 103.8361, it is slightly less than 104.
Step 4: Try 10.20
10.202 = 104.04, which is very close to 104.
Thus, the √104 is approximately 10.198
