Exercise 1.2
5. Identify a decimal that has a square root between the two given numbers.
Check the answer.
a) 3 and 4
32 = 9 and 42 = 16
So, any number between 9 and 16 has a square root between 3 and 4.
Choose 12.
Check √12 ≐ 3.46
The decimal 12 is one possible answer.
b) 5 and 6
52 = 25 and 62 = 36
Choose 30.
Check √30 ≐ 5.48
c) 10 and 11
102 = 100 and 112 = 121
Choose 120.
Check √120 ≐ 10.95
d) 4.5 and 5.5
4.52 = 20.25 and 5.52 = 30.25
So, any number between 20.25 and 30.25 has a square root between 4.5 and
5.5.
Choose 25.
Check √25 ≐ 5
10
Exercise 1.2
e) 22 and 23
222 = 484 and 232 = 529
So, any number between 484 and 529 has a square root between 22 and
23.
Choose 500
Check √500 ≐ 22.36
f) 7.5 and 8
7.52 = 56.25 and 82 = 64

Choose 60.
Check √60 ≐ 7.75
6. Determine the length of the hypotenuse in each right triangle. Write each
answer to the nearest tenth.
a) b)
ℎ 2 = 32 + 42 ℎ 2 = 62 + 82
ℎ2 = 9 + 16 ℎ2 = 36 + 64
ℎ2 = 25 ℎ2 = 100
ℎ = √25 ℎ = √100
ℎ=5 ℎ = 10
So, h is about 5m. So, h is about 10m.
11
Exercise 1.2
c) e)
ℎ 2 = 52 + 72
ℎ2 = 25 + 49 ℎ2 = 4.52 + 6.52
ℎ2 = 74 ℎ2 = 20.25 + 42.25
ℎ = √74 ℎ2 = 62.5
ℎ ≐ 8.6 ℎ = √62.5
So, h is about 8.6m. ℎ ≐ 7.9
So, h is about 7.9m.
f)
d)
ℎ2 = 102 + 122
ℎ2 = 100 + 144 ℎ2 = 12.52 + 15.52
ℎ2 = 244 ℎ2 = 156.25 + 240.25
ℎ = √244 ℎ2 = 396.5
ℎ ≐ 15.6 ℎ = √396.5
So, h is about 15.6m. ℎ ≐ 19.9
So, h is about 19.9m.
