4-6 Estimating Square Roots
Learn to estimate square roots to a given
number of decimal places and solve
problems using square roots.
Course 3
4-6 Estimating Square Roots
Additional Example 1A: Estimating Square Roots of
Numbers
Each square root is between two integers.
Name the integers. Explain your answer.
55
Think: What are perfect
squares close to 55?
72 = 49
49 < 55
82 = 64
64 > 55
55 is between 7 and 8 because 55 is
between 49 and 64.

Additional Example 1B: Estimating Square Roots of
Numbers Continued
Each square root is between two integers.
Name the integers. Explain your answer.
Think: What are perfect
– 90
squares close to 90?
–92 = 81
81 < 90
–102 = 100
100 > 90
– 90 is between –9 and –10 because 90 is
between 81 and 100.

80
Think: What are perfect
squares close to 80?
82 = 64

92 = 81
81 > 80
80 is between 8 and 9 because 80 is
between 64 and 81.

– 45
Think: What are perfect
squares close to 45?
–62 = 36
36 < 45
–72 = 49
49 > 45
– 45 is between –6 and –7 because 45 is
between 36 and 49.

Additional Example 2: Problem Solving Application
You want to sew a fringe on a square
tablecloth with an area of 500 square
inches. Calculate the length of each side of
the tablecloth and the length of fringe you
will need to the nearest tenth of an inch.
Understand the Problem
First find the length of a side. Then you can
use the length of a side to find the
perimeter, the length of fringe around the
tablecloth.
Course 3
4-6 Estimating Square Roots
Additional Example 2 Continued
Make a Plan
The length of a side, in feet, is the number
that you multiply by itself to get 500. To be
accurate, find this number to the nearest
tenth. If you do not know a step-by-step
method for finding 500, use guess and
check.

Because 500 is between 222 and 232, the square root
of 500 is between 22 and 23.

Additional Example 2 Continued
Solve
The square root is between 22.3 and 22.4. To
round to the nearest tenth, look at the next
decimal place. Consider 22.35.
22.352 = 499.5225
Too low
The square root must be greater than 22.35, so
round up.
To the nearest tenth,
500 is about 22.4.
The length of each side of the table is about
22.4 in.
Course 3
4-6 Estimating Square Roots
Additional Example 2 Continued
Solve
The length of a side of the tablecloth is 22.4
inches, to the nearest tenth of an inch. Now
estimate the length around the tablecloth.
4 • 22.4 = 89.6
Perimeter = 4 • side
You will need about 89.6 inches of fringe.
Course 3
4-6 Estimating Square Roots
Additional Example 2 Continued
Look Back
The length 90 inches divided by 4 is 22.5
inches. A 22.5-inch square has an area of
506.25 square inches, which is close to 500,
so the answers are reasonable.

Check It Out: Example 2
You want to build a fence around a
square garden that is 250 square feet.
Calculate the length of one side of the
garden and the total length of the fence,
to the nearest tenth.
Understand the Problem
First find the length of a side. Then you
can use the length of a side to find the
perimeter, the length of the fence.

Solve
To round to the nearest tenth, look at the next
decimal place.
Consider 15.85.
15.852 = 251.2225
The square root is lower than 15.85, so round
down.
To the nearest tenth, 250 is about 15.8.
The length of each side of the garden is
about 15.8 ft.
Course 3
4-6 Estimating Square Roots
Check It Out: Example 2 Continued
Solve
The length of a side of the garden is 15.8
feet, to the nearest tenth of a foot. Now
estimate the length around the garden.
4 • 15.8 = 63.2
Perimeter = 4 • side
You will need about 63.2 feet of fence.
Course 3

Look Back
The length 63.2 feet divided by 4 is 15.8
feet. A 15.8 foot square has an area of
249.64 square feet, which is close to 250,
so the answers are reasonable.
