How to Find Square Root of 204?

Square Root of 204 by Long Division Method

Value of √204 by Long Division Method

Explanation:

Forming pairs: 02 and 04
Find a number Y (1) such that whose square is <= 2. Now divide 02 by 1 with quotient as 1.
Bring down the next pair 04, to the right of the remainder 1. The new dividend is now 104.
Add the last digit of the quotient (1) to the divisor (1) i.e. 1 + 1 = 2. To the right of 2, find a digit Z (which is 4) such that 2Z × Z <= 104. After finding Z, together 2 and Z (4) form a new divisor 24 for the new dividend 104.
Divide 104 by 24 with the quotient as 4, giving the remainder = 104 - 24 × 4 = 104 - 96 = 8.
Now, let's find the decimal places after the quotient 14.
Bring down 00 to the right of this remainder 8. The new dividend is now 800.
Add the last digit of quotient to divisor i.e. 4 + 24 = 28. To the right of 28, find a digit Z (which is 2) such that 28Z × Z <= 800. Together they form a new divisor (282) for the new dividend (800).
Divide 800 by 282 with the quotient as 2, giving the remainder = 800 - 282 × 2 = 800 - 564 = 236.
Bring down 00 again. Repeat above steps for finding more decimal places for the square root of 204.

Therefore, the square root of 204 by long division method is 14.2 approximately.

Square Root of 204 Solved Examples

Example 1: Solve the equation x² − 204 = 0

Solution:

x² - 204 = 0 i.e. x² = 204
x = ±√204
Since the value of the square root of 204 is 14.283,
⇒ x = +√204 or -√204 = 14.283 or -14.283.
Example 2: If the area of a circle is 204π in². Find the radius of the circle.

Solution:

Let 'r' be the radius of the circle.
⇒ Area of the circle = πr² = 204π in²
⇒ r = ±√204 in
Since radius can't be negative,
⇒ r = √204
The square root of 204 is 14.283.
⇒ r = 14.283 in
Example 3: If the area of an equilateral triangle is 204√3 in². Find the length of one of the sides of the triangle.

Solution:

Let 'a' be the length of one of the sides of the equilateral triangle.
⇒ Area of the equilateral triangle = (√3/4)a² = 204√3 in²
⇒ a = ±√816 in
Since length can't be negative,
⇒ a = √816 = 2 √204
We know that the square root of 204 is 14.283.
⇒ a = 28.566 in
