<p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse<a>of</a>the square of a<a>number</a>. 1.3 is not a<a>perfect square</a>. The square root of 1.3 can be expressed in both radical and exponential forms. In radical form, it is expressed as √1.3, whereas it is expressed as (1.3)^(1/2) in<a>exponential form</a>. √1.3 ≈ 1.140175, 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>Identify the closest perfect squares to 1.3. The closest perfect squares are 1 (1^2) and 1.44 (1.2^2). Therefore, √1.3 lies between 1 and 1.2.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Apply the approximation<a>formula</a>: (Given number - smaller perfect square) ÷ (Larger perfect square - smaller perfect square). Using the formula: (1.3 - 1) ÷ (1.44 - 1) ≈ 0.6818.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Add this<a>decimal</a>to the smaller square root: 1 + 0.6818 ≈ 1.14.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Add this<a>decimal</a>to the smaller square root: 1 + 0.6818 ≈ 1.14.</p>
