<p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse<a>of</a>the square of the<a>number</a>. 9/2 is not a<a>perfect square</a>. The square root of 9/2 is expressed in both radical and<a>exponential form</a>. In radical form, it is expressed as √(9/2), whereas (9/2)^(1/2) in exponential form. √(9/2) = √(4.5) = 2.12132, which is an<a>irrational number</a>because it cannot be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are<a>integers</a>and q ≠ 0.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Convert 9/2 to a decimal, which is 4.5.</p>
20
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Convert 9/2 to a decimal, which is 4.5.</p>
22
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Find the closest perfect squares around 4.5. The smallest perfect square<a>less than</a>4.5 is 4, and the largest perfect square<a>greater than</a>4.5 is 9. Therefore, √4.5 falls between 2 and 3.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Find the closest perfect squares around 4.5. The smallest perfect square<a>less than</a>4.5 is 4, and the largest perfect square<a>greater than</a>4.5 is 9. Therefore, √4.5 falls between 2 and 3.</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Use the approximation<a>formula</a>: (Given number - smallest perfect square) / (Greater perfect square - smallest perfect square). (4.5 - 4) / (9 - 4) = 0.1</p>
22
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Use the approximation<a>formula</a>: (Given number - smallest perfect square) / (Greater perfect square - smallest perfect square). (4.5 - 4) / (9 - 4) = 0.1</p>
24
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Add this to the lower bound (2 + 0.1 = 2.1).</p>
23
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Add this to the lower bound (2 + 0.1 = 2.1).</p>
25
<p>Thus, the square root of 4.5 is approximately 2.12132.</p>

<p>Thus, the square root of 4.5 is approximately 2.12132.</p>
