The cube root of 49 is the value that, when multiplied by itself three times (cubed), gives the original number 49. Do you know? Cube roots apply to our real life also, like that for measuring dimensions, creating digital art, field of engineering, making financial decisions etc.
The cube root of 49 is 3.65930571002. The cube root of 49 is expressed as β49 in radical form, where the “ β ” sign" is called the “radical” sign. In exponential form, it is written as (49)β . If “m” is the cube root of 49, then, m3=49. Let us find the value of “m”.
We can find cube root of 49 through a method, named as, Halley’s Method. Let us see how it finds the result.
Now, what is Halley’s Method? It is an iterative method for finding cube roots of a given number N, such that, x3=N, where this method approximates the value of “x”.
Formula is βa≅ x((x3+2a) / (2x3+a)), where
a=given number whose cube root you are going to find
x=integer guess for the cubic root
Let us apply Halley’s method on the given number 49.
Step 1: Let a=49. Let us take x as 3, since, 33=27 is the nearest perfect cube which is less than 49.
Step 2: Apply the formula. β49≅ 3((33+2×49) / (2(3)3+49))= 3.64…
Hence, 3.64… is the approximate cubic root of 49.
