Question

between which two integers does square root of 12 lie?

Answer 1

HINT: \(\sqrt 9 = 3\) and \(\sqrt{16} = 4\)

Answer 2

maybe too much of a hint...

Answer 3

i am gonna go out on a limb here and say 3 and 4? :p

Answer 4

Yep, Do you understand why?

Answer 5

not really...i am horrible at algebra

Answer 6

square root is just inverse of square. ex: \(3^2 = 9\), so \(\sqrt{9} = 3\).
\(4^2 = 16\), so \(\sqrt{16} = 4\)

So \(\sqrt{12}\) must be in between 3 and 4, right?

Answer 7

oooook. It makes a little more sense now, i guess. more than it did before. Thanks Geerky
