to find square root of a number which is perfect square u can use either of the methods PRIME FACTORISATION or LONG DIVISION METHOD
PRIME FACTORISATION METHOD:
Step I: Obtain the given number.
Step II: Resolve the given number into prime factors by successive division.
Step III: Make pairs of prime factors such that both the factors in each pair are equal. Since the number is a perfect square, you will be able to make an exact number of pairs of prime factors.
Step IV: Take one factor from each pair.
Step V: Find the product of factors obtained in step IV.
Step VI: The product obtained in step V is the required square root.
LONG DIVISION METHOD:
Step I: Group the digits in pairs, starting with the digit in the units place. Each pair and the remaining digit (if any) is called a period.
Step II: Think of the largest number whose square is equal to or just less than the first period. Take this number as the divisor and also as the quotient.
Step III: Subtract the product of the divisor and the quotient from the first period and bring down the next period to the right of the remainder. This becomes the new dividend.
Step IV: Now, the new divisor is obtained by taking two times the quotient and annexing with it a suitable digit which is also taken as the next digit of the quotient, chosen in such a way that the product of the new divisor and this digit is equal to or just less than the new dividend.
Step V: Repeat steps (2), (3) and (4) till all the periods have been taken up. Now, the quotient so obtained is the required square root of the given number.
