[Maths Class Notes] on Square Root of 5 Pdf for Exam

The value of root 5, when reduced to 5 decimal points, is √5 = 2.23606. It has a place with a large list of irrational algebraic numbers. It has been sorted in light because of the fact that the square root of 5 can’t be described as a fraction and has an eternal number of decimals. Additionally, the specific value can never be found perfectly. In Mathematics, the square root of 5 is presented or written as √5. It is a positive number and also the value of √5 when multiplied by itself, gives you the prime number 5. To distinguish itself from a negative number with the same properties, it is called as the principal root of 5.

 

How to Find the Square Root of 5?

This question might be bothering you for quite some time now. The simplest way to find the square root of any number would be by using the division method. How to find the value of root 5? Follow the steps given below:

 

Step 1: The first step is to group the digits in pairs of two. You start from the unit that is in the unit place and move towards the left-hand side for a number before the decimal point. For the number after the decimal point, you group the first two numbers and move towards the right-hand side.

Step 2: In this step, you will have to pick the largest square number that is either equal to or lesser than the first number pair. Now take this number as the divisor and also note down the quotient. 

 

Step 3: Now, you subtract the final product of the quotient and the divisor and the quotient from the pair of numbers or the number. Next, you bring down the next pair of numbers.

 

Step 4: You now need to calculate the divisor. To do that, you’ll have to multiply the previous quotient by 2 and then pick a new number in such a way that the digit and the new divisor is less than or equal to the new dividend

 

Step 5: Repeat Step 2, Step 3, and Step 4, until all the pairs of numbers are exhausted. Now, the quotient that you’ve found is the square root. In case of the value of under root 5, this is how it is done.

Did you know?

• 5 is not a perfect square as the square root of 5 is not a whole number.

•  The square root of 5 in exponential form can be written as (5)½ or (5)0.5.

• When solving a problem having a square root of 5 it is advisable to take the value till 3 decimal points.

 

Is the square root of the number 5 a rational number or an irrational number?

First let us understand what rational and irrational numbers are. A rational number is a number that can be written in the form of a ratio between any two integer numbers. For example, the square root of 9 is equal to 3, which can also be written as 3/1.

 

Whereas, an irrational number is a number that can not be written in the form of a ratio between any two integer numbers. So, the square root of 5 which is equivalent to 2.23 up to its two decimal values, which is an irrational number.

 

Solved examples

1.  Suppose the sides of a square photo frame is 2.33 m in length. Find out the area of the photo frame and write the answer to its nearest roundoff.

Ans. Length of the side of the photo frame= 2.33 m

Area of square = (side)2

Substituting the value of the length to the above equation we get,

Area of photo frame= (2.33)2= 5.4289m2

Rounding it off we get 5 m2

 

2. The area of a square-shaped wall i
s 25m2. What is the length of one side of the wall? What is the perimeter of the wall?

Ans. Area of square = (side)2

Substituting the value of the area of the wall we get,

25 = (side)2

√25 = side = 5 meters.

Perimeter of square = 4 x side

= 4 x 5 = 20 meters.

 

3. What is the value of 15√5?

Ans. 15√5 = 15 x 2.236 = 33.54101

 

4. Evaluate the following problems:

1. 5√16+2√25-2√5

2. √5 – √1

3. 20√25 – 10√9 – 5√5         

Ans.

1. 5√16+2√25-2√5

= (5 x 4) + (2 x 5) + (2 x 2.236)

= 20 + 10 + 4.472

= 34.472

 

2. √5 – √1

= 2.236 – 1

= 1.236

 

3.20√25 – 10√9 – 5√5

= (20 x 5) – (10 x 3) – (5 x 2.236)

= 100 – 30 – 11.18

= 58.82

Refer to the solved examples to understand how the concept of the square root of 5 has been used. Learn how it is defined and calculated to get a better idea of this topic. By doing this, you can easily find out the square roots of other whole numbers easily.
