How to Find Square Root of 789?

Square Root of 789 by Long Division Method

Value of √789 by Long Division Method

Explanation:

Forming pairs: 07 and 89
Find a number Y (2) such that whose square is <= 7. Now divide 07 by 2 with quotient as 2.
Bring down the next pair 89, to the right of the remainder 3. The new dividend is now 389.
Add the last digit of the quotient (2) to the divisor (2) i.e. 2 + 2 = 4. To the right of 4, find a digit Z (which is 8) such that 4Z × Z <= 389. After finding Z, together 4 and Z (8) form a new divisor 48 for the new dividend 389.
Divide 389 by 48 with the quotient as 8, giving the remainder = 389 - 48 × 8 = 389 - 384 = 5.
Now, let's find the decimal places after the quotient 28.
Bring down 00 to the right of this remainder 5. The new dividend is now 500.
Add the last digit of quotient to divisor i.e. 8 + 48 = 56. To the right of 56, find a digit Z (which is 0) such that 56Z × Z <= 500. Together they form a new divisor (560) for the new dividend (500).
Divide 500 by 560 with the quotient as 0, giving the remainder = 500 - 560 × 0 = 500 - 0 = 500.
Bring down 00 again. Repeat above steps for finding more decimal places for the square root of 789.

Therefore, the square root of 789 by long division method is 28.0 approximately.

Square Root of 789 Solved Examples

Example 1: Solve the equation x² − 789 = 0

Solution:

x² - 789 = 0 i.e. x² = 789
x = ±√789
Since the value of the square root of 789 is 28.089,
⇒ x = +√789 or -√789 = 28.089 or -28.089.
Example 2: If the area of an equilateral triangle is 789√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 = 789√3 in²
⇒ a = ±√3156 in
Since length can't be negative,
⇒ a = √3156 = 2 √789
We know that the square root of 789 is 28.089.
⇒ a = 56.178 in
Example 3: If the surface area of a cube is 4734 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 = 4734 in²
⇒ a = ±√789 in
Since length can't be negative,
⇒ a = √789
We know that the square root of 789 is 28.089.
⇒ a = 28.089 in
