Square Root of 2594

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 various fields such as vehicle design, finance, etc. Here, we will discuss the square root of 2594.

What is the Square Root of 2594?

The square root is the inverse of the square of the number. 2594 is not a perfect square. The square root of 2594 is expressed in both radical and exponential form. In the radical form, it is expressed as √2594, whereas (2594)^(1/2) in the exponential form. √2594 ≈ 50.933, 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.

Finding the Square Root of 2594

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 method and approximation method are used. Let us now learn the following methods:

 

  • Prime factorization method
  • Long division method
  • Approximation method

Square Root of 2594 by Prime Factorization Method

The product of prime factors is the prime factorization of a number. Now let us look at how 2594 is broken down into its prime factors.

 

Step 1: Finding the prime factors of 2594 Breaking it down, we get 2 x 1297. Since 1297 is a prime number, the prime factorization is 2 x 1297.

 

Step 2: Now we have found the prime factors of 2594. Since 2594 is not a perfect square, calculating √2594 using prime factorization directly is not feasible through pairing.

Square Root of 2594 by Long Division Method

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 2594, we group it as 25 and 94.

 

Step 2: Now we need to find n whose square is less than or equal to 25. We can say n as ‘5’ because 5 x 5 = 25. Now the quotient is 5 after subtracting 25 from 25, the remainder is 0.

 

Step 3: Now let us bring down 94, which is the new dividend. Add the old divisor with the same number 5 + 5, we get 10, which will be our new divisor.

 

Step 4: The new divisor becomes 10n. We need to find the value of n such that 10n x n ≤ 94. Let us consider n as 9, now 10 x 9 = 90. Step 5: Subtract 90 from 94, the difference is 4, and the quotient is 59.

 

Step 6: 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 400.

 

Step 7: Now we need to find a new divisor. Adding the last digit of the quotient to the divisor, we use 509, resulting in 509 x 7 = 3563.

 

Step 8: Subtracting 3563 from 4000, we get the remainder of 437.

 

Step 9: Continue performing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point. If there is no decimal value, continue until the remainder is zero.

 

So the square root of √2594 ≈ 50.93.

Square Root of 2594 by Approximation Method

The approximation method is another method for finding the 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 2594 using the approximation method.

 

Step 1: We have to find the closest perfect squares to √2594. The closest perfect square smaller than 2594 is 2500, and the closest one larger is 2601. √2594 falls somewhere between 50 and 51.

 

Step 2: Now we apply the formula: (Given number - smaller perfect square) ÷ (larger perfect square - smaller perfect square). Using the formula (2594 - 2500) ÷ (2601 - 2500) = 94 ÷ 101 ≈ 0.9307. Adding this to the nearest smaller perfect square root, we have 50 + 0.9307 = 50.9307.

 

So the square root of 2594 is approximately 50.9307.

Problem 1

Can you help Max find the area of a square box if its side length is given as √2594?

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

The area of the square is approximately 2594 square units.

Explanation

The area of a square is side².

The side length is given as √2594.

Area = (√2594)²

= 2594.

Therefore, the area of the square box is approximately 2594 square units.

Problem 2

A square-shaped building measuring 2594 square feet is built; if each of the sides is √2594, what will be the square feet of half of the building?

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

1297 square feet

Explanation

To find half of the building's area, divide the given area by 2.

2594 ÷ 2 = 1297.

So half of the building measures 1297 square feet.

Problem 4

What will be the square root of (2594 + 7)?

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

The square root is approximately 51.

Explanation

To find the square root, first add the numbers: 2594 + 7 = 2601.

The square root of 2601 is 51.

Therefore, the square root of (2594 + 7) is ±51.

Problem 5

Find the perimeter of the rectangle if its length ‘l’ is √2594 units and the width ‘w’ is 38 units.

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

The perimeter of the rectangle is approximately 177.866 units.

Explanation

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

Perimeter = 2 × (√2594 + 38)

≈ 2 × (50.933 + 38)

≈ 2 × 88.933

= 177.866 units.
