<p>The approximation method provides a straightforward way to find square roots. Here's how to approximate the square root of 0.0008:</p>
24
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the perfect squares closest to 0.0008. The closest are 0.0004 (0.02²) and 0.0016 (0.04²). Thus, √0.0008 is between 0.02 and 0.04.</p>

<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Identify the perfect squares closest to 0.0008. The closest are 0.0004 (0.02²) and 0.0016 (0.04²). Thus, √0.0008 is between 0.02 and 0.04.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Use interpolation: (Number - Lower perfect square) / (Upper perfect square - Lower perfect square). For example: (0.0008 - 0.0004) / (0.0016 - 0.0004) = 0.4 / 1.2 = 0.3333.</p>
24
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Use interpolation: (Number - Lower perfect square) / (Upper perfect square - Lower perfect square). For example: (0.0008 - 0.0004) / (0.0016 - 0.0004) = 0.4 / 1.2 = 0.3333.</p>
26
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Add this to the lower bound: 0.02 + 0.3333(0.02) = 0.026666.</p>
25
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Add this to the lower bound: 0.02 + 0.3333(0.02) = 0.026666.</p>

<h3>Explanation</h3>
35
<p>The area of the square = side².</p>
34
<p>The area of the square = side².</p>
36
<p>The side length is given as √0.0005.</p>
35
<p>The side length is given as √0.0005.</p>
37
<p>Area of the square = side² = √0.0005 × √0.0005</p>
36
<p>Area of the square = side² = √0.0005 × √0.0005</p>
38
<p>= 0.02236 × 0.02236 = 0.0005</p>
37
<p>= 0.02236 × 0.02236 = 0.0005</p>
39
<p>Therefore, the area of the square box is 0.0005 square units.</p>
