Square Roots The Square Root of a number is the number you can multiply by itself to give you that number. Thus, = 2, because 22=4 = 3, because 32=9 Try: = 8, because 82=64 = 12, because 122=144 = 1, because 12 = 1 = 0, because 02 = 0

Square Root - Prime Factorization Method
To find the square root using the prime factorization method Step I: Resolve the given number into prime factors. Step II: Make pairs of similar factors. Step III: Take the product of prime factors, choosing one factor out of every pair.

1. Find the square root of 484 by prime factorization method.
Solution: Resolving 484 as the product of primes, we get 484 = 2 × 2 × 11 × 11 √484 = √(2 × 2 × 11 × 11) = 2 × 11 Therefore, √484 = 22

Evaluate √4356 Solution: By using prime factorization, we get 4356 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 11 √4356 = √(2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 11) = 2 × 3 × 11 Therefore, √4356 = 66.
6
Evaluate √11025 Solution: By using prime factorization, we get 11025 = 5 x 5 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 7. √11025 = √(5 x 5 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 7) = 5 × 3 × 7 Therefore, √11025 = 105
