How to Find Square Root of 276?

Square Root of 276 by Long Division Method

Value of √276 by Long Division Method

Explanation:

Forming pairs: 02 and 76
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 76, to the right of the remainder 1. The new dividend is now 176.
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 6) such that 2Z × Z <= 176. After finding Z, together 2 and Z (6) form a new divisor 26 for the new dividend 176.
Divide 176 by 26 with the quotient as 6, giving the remainder = 176 - 26 × 6 = 176 - 156 = 20.
Now, let's find the decimal places after the quotient 16.
Bring down 00 to the right of this remainder 20. The new dividend is now 2000.
Add the last digit of quotient to divisor i.e. 6 + 26 = 32. To the right of 32, find a digit Z (which is 6) such that 32Z × Z <= 2000. Together they form a new divisor (326) for the new dividend (2000).
Divide 2000 by 326 with the quotient as 6, giving the remainder = 2000 - 326 × 6 = 2000 - 1956 = 44.
Bring down 00 again. Repeat above steps for finding more decimal places for the square root of 276.

Therefore, the square root of 276 by long division method is 16.6 approx.

Square Root of 276 Solved Examples

Example 1: Solve the equation x² − 276 = 0

Solution:

x² - 276 = 0 i.e. x² = 276
x = ±√276
Since the value of the square root of 276 is 16.613,
⇒ x = +√276 or -√276 = 16.613 or -16.613.
Example 2: If the area of a circle is 276π in². Find the radius of the circle.

Solution:

Let 'r' be the radius of the circle.
⇒ Area of the circle = πr² = 276π in²
⇒ r = ±√276 in
Since radius can't be negative,
⇒ r = √276
The square root of 276 is 16.613.
⇒ r = 16.613 in
Example 3: If the surface area of a cube is 1656 in². Find the length of the side of the cube.

Solution:

Let 'a' be the length of the side of the cube.
⇒ Area of the cube = 6a² = 1656 in²
⇒ a = ±√276 in
Since length can't be negative,
⇒ a = √276
We know that the square root of 276 is 16.613.
⇒ a = 16.613 in
