    Estimating Square Roots

    Use your understanding of perfect square numbers and their square roots to estimate non-perfect square numbers.

  • Slide 2

    Estimating Square Roots

    Determine which two integers the evaluated square root would be between. Perfect square numbers will help you to estimate.

  • Question 3
    45 seconds
    Report an issue
    Q.

    What two integers is  5\sqrt{5}  between?

    answer choices

    3 & 4

    1 & 2

    0 & 1

    2 & 3

  • Slide 4
    Report an issue

     5\sqrt{5}  would land between  4\sqrt{4}  and  9\sqrt{9}  

    So the integers would be between 2 & 3.

  • Slide 5
    Report an issue

    Notice where it lands in between.

    Its closer to the integer 2 because

     5\sqrt{5}  is closer to  4\sqrt{4}  

  • Question 6

    Q.

    What two integers is  17-\sqrt{17}  between?

    answer choices

    -16 & -17

    -4 & -5

    -3 & -4

    -5 & -6

  • Slide 7
    Report an issue

     17-\sqrt{17}  would land between  16-\sqrt{16}  and  25-\sqrt{25}  

    So the integers would be between -4 & -5.

  • Slide 8
    Report an issue

    Notice where it lands in between.

    Its closer to the integer -4 because

     17-\sqrt{17}  is closer to  16-\sqrt{16}  

  • Question 9

    Report an issue
    Q.

    What two integers is  89\sqrt{89}  between?

    answer choices

    85 & 90

    7 & 8

    8 & 9

    9 & 10

  • Slide 10
    Report an issue

     89\sqrt{89}  is between  81\sqrt{81}  &  100\sqrt{100}  

    So the integers were 9 & 10

  • Question 11

    Q.

    What two integers is  250\sqrt{250}  between?

    answer choices

    15 & 16

    16 & 17

    18 & 19

    14 & 15

  • Slide 12
    Report an issue

     250\sqrt{250}  is between  225\sqrt{225}  &  256\sqrt{256}  

    So the integers were 15 & 16

  • Question 13

    Q.

    What two integers is  150\sqrt{150}  between?

    answer choices

    10 & 11

    11 & 12

    12 & 13

    13 & 14

  • Slide 14
    Report an issue

     150\sqrt{150}  is between  144\sqrt{144}  &  169\sqrt{169}  

    So the integers were 12 & 13
