1.
\(\because \quad \sqrt { 24 } =\sqrt { 2\times 2\times 2\times 3 } =2\sqrt { 6 } \)
\(\sqrt { 216 } =\sqrt { 3\times 3\times 3\times 2\times 2\times 2 } =6\sqrt { 6 } \)
\(\sqrt { 96 } =\sqrt { 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 2\times 3 } =4\sqrt { 6 } \)
So, \(\frac { 2\sqrt { 6 } +6\sqrt { 6 } }{ 4\sqrt { 6 } } =\frac { \sqrt { 6 } (2+6) }{ 4\sqrt { 6 } } \)
\(=\frac { 8\sqrt { 6 } }{ 4\sqrt { 6 } } =\frac { 8 }{ 4 } =2\)
2.
We have, \(\sqrt { 16+\sqrt { 81 } } =\sqrt { 16+9 } =\sqrt { 25 } =5\)
3.
3.6
4.
Therefore, \(\sqrt { 3481 } \)= 59
5.
5.2
6.

\(\therefore \ \sqrt { 5625 } =75\)
7.
We have,
\(600=\underline { 2\times 2 } \times 2\times 3\times \underline { 5\times 5 } \)
Here, the numbers 2 and 5 are in pair, but a pair of 2 and 3 is missing.
So, to get a perfect square, we will multiply 600 by 6.
| 2 | 600 |
| 2 | 300 |
| 2 | 150 |
| 3 | 75 |
| 5 | 25 |
| 5 | 5 |
| 1 |
8.
We have, 11025
| 5 | 11025 |
| 5 | 2205 |
| 3 | 441 |
| 3 | 147 |
| 7 | 49 |
| 7 | 7 |
| 1 |
\(\therefore \quad 11025=\underline { 5\times 5 } \times \underline { 3\times 3 } \times \underline { 7\times 7 } \)
or \(\sqrt { 11025 } =5\times 3\times 7=105\)
9.
Given square root number is \(\sqrt { 500 } \).
We know that,
222 = 484 and 232 = 529
So, 500 lies between 484 and 529.
i.e. 484 < 500 < 529 \(\Rightarrow\) 222 < 500 < 232
\(\Rightarrow\) 22 < \(\sqrt { 500 } \) < 23 [taking square root]
Thus, 484 is much closer to 500 than 529.
So, \(\sqrt { 500 } \) is nearest to whole number 22.
10.
Given number is 121.
Now, we subtract successive odd numbers starting from 1 as follows:
121 - 1 = 120,
117 - 5 = 112,
120 - 3 = 117,
112 - 7 = 105,
105 - 9 = 96, 96 -11 = 85,
85 -13 = 72, 72 -15 = 57,
57-17 = 40, 40 - 19 = 21, 21 - 21 = 0
We observe that the number 121 reduced to zero after subtracting first 11 odd numbers. So, 121 is a perfect square.
\(\therefore \ \sqrt { 121 } =11\)
Hence, the square root of 121 is 11.
11.
According to Pythagoras theorem,
(Hypotenuse)2 = (Base)2 + (Perpendicular)2
Clearly, the side opposite to 90° is hypotenuse
AC = Hypotenuse
AB = Base
BC = Perpendicular

(AC)2 = (AB)2 + (BC)2
\(\Rightarrow\) (AC)2 =(12)2 +(5)2
\(\Rightarrow\) (AC)2=144+25
\(\Rightarrow\) (AC)2 =169
\(\Rightarrow\) AC =\(\sqrt { 169 } \) = 13 cm
12.
We have, 1500

We see that, 382 < 1500 < 392
So, number to be added = 392 - 1500
= 1521 - 1500 = 21
Therefore, the perfect square is 1500 + 21 = 1521 and \(\sqrt { 1521 } \)= 39
So, the required number is 21 and the square root is 39.
