anonymous · Answer

i can get my answer this far but how do you do it to three decimal places using a calculator?

mertsj · Answer

What does your calculator say?

mertsj · Answer

mine says 3.605551275

anonymous · Answer

i dont know what to push on the calculator to figure it out lol im not much on using calculators

mertsj · Answer

Not all calculators are alike but on mine I have to enter 13 and then push the sqrt key  so try that.

mertsj · Answer

on others you push the sqrt key first and then put in the 13
So if the first way doesn't work, try that.

anonymous · Answer

the first way gave me an error and i did the square symbol and 13 earlier and it just give me sqrt13

mertsj · Answer

Then push enter or equals or something.
