The square of an integer is a
perfect square.
The opposite of squaring a
number is taking the square root.
Example

For example 81
asks what number multiplied by itself is equal
to 81? That number is 9.
Is there another solution to that problem?


Do you see that squares and square
roots are inverses (opposites) of each
other?
Estimating square roots

Once we have memorized these
squares and their roots, we can
estimate square roots that are not
perfect squares

For example, what about
8
?
Estimating square roots



We find the two perfect squares that are before
and after the square root of 8. . .

Estimating square roots

8 is between 2 and 3 but
We can see that
is closer to 3. We would say that 8 is
approximately 3.


Rational number- can be written as
a fraction

Irrational number- cannot be written
as a fraction because:
• it is a non-terminating decimal
• it is a decimal that does NOT repeat
* The square roots of ALL perfect
squares are rational.
* The square roots of numbers that are
NOT perfect squares are irrational.
