How do you calculate the square root of a square number? - Answers

Answer: Type the number into your calculator... and hit the square root button. Answer: To calculate with pencil and paper, several methods exist; all of them require some kind of iteration. Trial-and-error is the easiest, but not the fastest. Here is a fairly fast method: Estimate an initial square root. For example, estimate the square root of 2 as 1. Divide the number by the estimate; 2 / 1 = 2. Take the average of your prior estimate and the result of the division - in this case, 1.5. Repeat the method with this new number: 2 / 1.5 = 1.33333... Here, the new average is roughly 1.4. The number of correct digits approximately doubles every time you repeat the cycle.
