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 fields like vehicle design and finance. Here, we will discuss the square root of 1109.
The square root is the inverse of the square of a number. 1109 is not a perfect square. The square root of 1109 is expressed in both radical and exponential form. In the radical form, it is expressed as √1109, whereas in the exponential form, it is expressed as (1109)^(1/2). √1109 ≈ 33.2947, 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, for non-perfect square numbers, the prime factorization method is not used; instead, the long division method and approximation method are utilized. 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 1109 is broken down into its prime factors:
Step 1: Finding the prime factors of 1109 Breaking it down, we get 1109 = 1 x 1109 (it is not easily broken into smaller prime factors since it is a semiprime).
Step 2: Since 1109 is not a perfect square and its prime factors don't form pairs, calculating 1109 using prime factorization is impractical.
The long division method is particularly used for non-perfect square numbers. In this method, we check the closest perfect square numbers for the given number. Let us now learn how to find the square root using the long division method, step by step:
Step 1: Group the numbers from right to left. In the case of 1109, we need to group it as 09 and 11.
Step 2: Find n whose square is less than or equal to 11. We can say n is 3 because 3 x 3 = 9, which is less than 11. Now the quotient is 3 and the remainder is 2 after subtracting 9 from 11.
Step 3: Bring down the next pair, 09, making the new dividend 209. Add the old divisor with the same number: 3 + 3 = 6, which will be our new divisor.
Step 4: The new divisor is 6n, and we need to find n such that 6n x n ≤ 209.
Step 5: Find n as 3, since 63 x 3 = 189. Step 6: Subtract 189 from 209, the difference is 20, and the quotient is 33.
Step 7: Add a decimal point and continue the process to get more decimal places.
Step 8: Continue doing these steps until we get two numbers after the decimal point or until the remainder is zero. So the square root of √1109 is approximately 33.29.
The approximation method is another method for finding square roots. It is an easy method to find the square root of a given number. Let us learn how to find the square root of 1109 using the approximation method.
Step 1: Find the closest perfect squares of √1109. The closest perfect squares are 1024 (32^2) and 1156 (34^2). √1109 falls between 32 and 34.
Step 2: Apply the formula (Given number - smaller perfect square) / (larger perfect square - smaller perfect square). Using the formula (1109 - 1024) / (1156 - 1024) = 85 / 132 ≈ 0.6439. Adding this to the smaller root, 32 + 0.6439 = 32.6439, so the square root of 1109 is approximately 33.29.
Students make mistakes while finding square roots, such as forgetting about the negative square root or skipping steps in methods like long division. Let us look at a few of these mistakes in detail.
Can you help Max find the area of a square box if its side length is given as √1099?
The area of the square is approximately 1099 square units.
The area of the square = side^2.
The side length is given as √1099.
Area of the square = side^2 = √1099 x √1099 = 1099.
Therefore, the area of the square box is approximately 1099 square units.
A square-shaped building measuring 1109 square feet is built; if each of the sides is √1109, what will be the square feet of half of the building?
554.5 square feet
Divide the given area by 2 as the building is square-shaped. Dividing 1109 by 2, we get 554.5. So half of the building measures 554.5 square feet.
Calculate √1109 x 5.
166.4735
The first step is to find the square root of 1109, which is approximately 33.2947.
The second step is to multiply 33.
2947 by 5. So, 33.2947 x 5 ≈ 166.4735.
What will be the square root of (1099 + 10)?
The square root is approximately 33.
To find the square root, first find the sum (1099 + 10) = 1109.
The square root of 1109 is approximately 33.
Therefore, the square root of (1099 + 10) is approximately ±33.
Find the perimeter of a rectangle if its length ‘l’ is √1099 units and the width ‘w’ is 50 units.
The perimeter of the rectangle is approximately 166.59 units.
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × (length + width).
Perimeter = 2 × (√1099 + 50) ≈ 2 × (33.15 + 50) ≈ 2 × 83.15 ≈ 166.59 units.
