3 <p>If a number is multiplied by itself, the result is a square. The inverse of this process is finding the square root. Square roots are used in various fields such as engineering, finance, and physics. Here, we will discuss the square root of 139.25.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Square Root of 139.25?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse operation of squaring a<a>number</a>. 139.25 is not a<a>perfect square</a>. The square root of 139.25 can be expressed in both radical and exponential forms. In radical form, it is expressed as √139.25, whereas in<a>exponential form</a>it is (139.25)(1/2). The square root of 139.25 is approximately 11.799, which is an<a>irrational number</a>because it cannot be expressed as a simple<a>fraction</a>p/q, where p and q are<a>integers</a>and q ≠ 0. </p>

6 <h2>Finding the Square Root of 139.25</h2>

7 <p>The<a>prime factorization</a>method is used for perfect square numbers. However, for non-perfect square numbers, methods such as the long-<a>division</a>method and approximation method are used. Let us now learn the following methods:</p>

8 <ul><li>Long division method </li>

9 <li>Approximation method</li>

10 </ul><h3>Square Root of 139.25 by Long Division Method</h3>

11 <p>The<a>long division</a>method is particularly useful for non-perfect square numbers. Here is how to find the<a>square root</a>using the long division method, step by step:</p>

12 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Group the digits of 139.25 from right to left into pairs: 39|25.</p>

13 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Find a number whose square is<a>less than</a>or equal to 39. The number is 6 (since 6 x 6 = 36).</p>

14 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Subtract 36 from 39, and bring down 25 to get 325.</p>

15 <p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Double the<a>divisor</a>(6) to get 12. Now find a digit n such that 12n * n is close to 325. The digit n is 2 (since 122 x 2 = 244).</p>

16 <p><strong>Step 5:</strong>Subtract 244 from 325 to get 81.</p>

17 <p><strong>Step 6:</strong>Add a<a>decimal</a>point to the<a>quotient</a>, and bring down 00 to get 8100.</p>

18 <p><strong>Step 7:</strong>The new divisor is 124. Find a digit n such that 124n * n is close to 8100. The digit n is 6 (since 1246 x 6 = 7476).</p>

19 <p><strong>Step 8:</strong>Subtract 7476 from 8100 to get 624.</p>

20 <p><strong>Step 9:</strong>Continue the process to get more decimal places.</p>

21 <p>So, the square root of 139.25 is approximately 11.799.</p>

25 <p>The approximation method is a simpler way to find the square root of a number:</p>

24 <p>The approximation method is a simpler way to find the square root of a number:</p>

26 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the two perfect squares between which 139.25 lies. The closest perfect squares are 121 (112) and 144 (122).</p>

25 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the two perfect squares between which 139.25 lies. The closest perfect squares are 121 (112) and 144 (122).</p>

27 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>√139.25 lies between 11 and 12.</p>

26 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>√139.25 lies between 11 and 12.</p>

28 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Use interpolation to estimate: (Given number - smaller perfect square) / (Larger perfect square - smaller perfect square) = (139.25 - 121) / (144 - 121)</p>

27 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Use interpolation to estimate: (Given number - smaller perfect square) / (Larger perfect square - smaller perfect square) = (139.25 - 121) / (144 - 121)</p>

29 <p>This results in approximately 0.799. Adding the initial<a>whole number</a>11 to the decimal point, we get 11 + 0.799 = 11.799.</p>

28 <p>This results in approximately 0.799. Adding the initial<a>whole number</a>11 to the decimal point, we get 11 + 0.799 = 11.799.</p>

30 <p>So, the approximate square root of 139.25 is 11.799.</p>

29 <p>So, the approximate square root of 139.25 is 11.799.</p>

37 <h3>Explanation</h3>

36 <h3>Explanation</h3>

38 <p>The area of a square = side^2.</p>

37 <p>The area of a square = side^2.</p>

39 <p>Given the side length as √139, Area = (√139) × (√139) = 139.</p>

38 <p>Given the side length as √139, Area = (√139) × (√139) = 139.</p>

40 <p>Therefore, the area of the square is approximately 139 square units.</p>
