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 1354
The square root is the inverse of the square of the number. 1354 is not a perfect square. The square root of 1354 is expressed in both radical and exponential form. In the radical form, it is expressed as √1354, whereas (1354)^(1/2) in the exponential form. √1354 ≈ 36.791, which is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.
The prime factorization method is used for perfect square numbers. However, the prime factorization method is not used for non-perfect square numbers where long division and approximation methods are used. Let us now learn the following methods:
The product of prime factors is the prime factorization of a number. Now let us look at how 1354 is broken down into its prime factors:
Step 1: Finding the prime factors of 1354
Breaking it down, we get 2 x 677: 2^1 x 677^1
Step 2: Now we found out the prime factors of 1354. The second step is to make pairs of those prime factors. Since 1354 is not a perfect square, therefore, the digits of the number can’t be grouped in pairs. Therefore, calculating 1354 using prime factorization is impossible.
The long division method is particularly used for non-perfect square numbers. In this method, we should check the closest perfect square number for the given number. Let us now learn how to find the square root using the long division method, step by step:
Step 1: To begin with, we need to group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 1354, we need to group it as 54 and 13.
Step 2: Now we need to find n whose square is less than or equal to 13. We can say n as ‘3’ because 3^2 = 9 is less than 13. Now the quotient is 3 after subtracting 9 from 13, the remainder is 4.
Step 3: Now let us bring down 54, which is the new dividend. Add the old divisor with the same number, 3 + 3, we get 6, which will be our new divisor.
Step 4: The new divisor will be the sum of the dividend and quotient. Now we get 6n as the new divisor, we need to find the value of n.
Step 5: The next step is finding 6n × n ≤ 454. Let us consider n as 7, now 67 × 7 = 469, which is greater than 454. So, we try n as 6, and 66 × 6 = 396, which is less than 454.
Step 6: Subtract 396 from 454, the difference is 58, and the quotient is 36.
Step 7: Since the dividend is less than the divisor, we need to add a decimal point. Adding the decimal point allows us to add two zeroes to the dividend. Now the new dividend is 5800.
Step 8: Now we need to find the new divisor that is 736 because 736 × 7 = 5152.
Step 9: Subtracting 5152 from 5800, we get the result 648.
Step 10: Now the quotient is 36.7.
Step 11: Continue doing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point. Suppose if there are no decimal values continue till the remainder is zero.
So the square root of √1354 is approximately 36.79.
The approximation method is another method for finding square roots. It is an easy method to find the square root of a given number. Now let us learn how to find the square root of 1354 using the approximation method.
Step 1: Now we have to find the closest perfect squares of √1354. The smallest perfect square less than 1354 is 1296 and the largest perfect square greater than 1354 is 1369. √1354 falls somewhere between 36 and 37.
Step 2: Now we need to apply the formula that is: (Given number - smallest perfect square) / (Greater perfect square - smallest perfect square). Going by the formula (1354 - 1296) ÷ (1369 - 1296) = 58 ÷ 73 ≈ 0.79. Using the formula, we identified the decimal point of our square root. The next step is adding the value we got initially to the decimal number which is 36 + 0.79 = 36.79, so the square root of 1354 is approximately 36.79.
Students do make mistakes while finding the square root, likewise forgetting about the negative square root, skipping long division methods, etc. Now let us look at a few of those mistakes that students tend to make in detail.
Can you help Max find the area of a square box if its side length is given as √1354?
The area of the square is approximately 1831.364 square units.
The area of the square = side^2.
The side length is given as √1354.
Area of the square = side^2 = √1354 × √1354 = 36.791 × 36.791 ≈ 1831.364.
Therefore, the area of the square box is approximately 1831.364 square units.
A square-shaped building measuring 1354 square feet is built. If each of the sides is √1354, what will be the square feet of half of the building?
677 square feet
We can just divide the given area by 2 as the building is square-shaped.
Dividing 1354 by 2 = we get 677.
So half of the building measures 677 square feet.
Calculate √1354 × 5.
Approximately 183.955
The first step is to find the square root of 1354, which is approximately 36.791.
The second step is to multiply 36.791 by 5.
So 36.791 × 5 ≈ 183.955.
What will be the square root of (1350 + 4)?
The square root is approximately 36.791.
To find the square root, we need to find the sum of (1350 + 4). 1350 + 4 = 1354, and then √1354 ≈ 36.791.
Therefore, the square root of (1350 + 4) is approximately ±36.791.
Find the perimeter of the rectangle if its length ‘l’ is √1354 units and the width ‘w’ is 40 units.
We find the perimeter of the rectangle as approximately 153.582 units.
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × (length + width).
Perimeter = 2 × (√1354 + 40) ≈ 2 × (36.791 + 40) ≈ 2 × 76.791 ≈ 153.582 units.
