Answer:

\sqrt{5}

Draw number line as shown in the figure.

1.Let the point O represent 0(zero) and point A represents

2. Draw perpendicular AX at A on the number line and cut-off arc

We have OA=2 units and AB=1unit

Using pythagoras theorem, we have,

 =  > OB²=OA²+AB²

 =  > OB²=(2)²+(1)² = 5

 =  > OB =  \sqrt{5}

Taking O as the centre and OB= √5 as radius draw an arc cutting real line at C. Clearly, OC=OB= √5

I hope it will help you please give thanks
