Answer 2

Answer:

We have represented $\sqrt{17}$ on the number line in the picture below.

Explanation:

• In mathematics, a number line can be defined as a straight line with numbers placed at equal intervals or segments along its length.
• We know that $\sqrt{16}=4$ and $\sqrt{17}=\sqrt{4^{2}+1^{2}}$.
• Mark point $A$ representing $4$ on the number line.
• Now construct $\mathrm{AB}$ of unit length perpendicular to $\mathrm{OA}$.
• Then taking $\mathrm{O}$ as the centre and $\mathrm{OB}$ as radius.
• Draw an arc intersecting the number line at $\mathrm{C}$.
• $C$ is represented as $\sqrt{17}$:
