Estimate? :o Hmmm is there some specific method for estimating? I can't seem to remember...

175 is awful close to 169 which is a perfect square.

$\Large\bf\sf \sqrt{175}\quad=\quad \sqrt{169+6}$Not really sure what we would do from there...

Factoring 169 out of each,$\Large\bf\sf \sqrt{169\left(1+\frac{6}{169}\right)}$Taking the root of 169,$\Large\bf\sf 13\sqrt{1+\frac{6}{169}}$I dunno I'm just trying to think of an idea for estimating. This doesn't exactly get us to a decimal value.. hmm
