Best Answer

You are looking for a number which, when squared, gives you 144. Therefore, an obvious method is to try squaring different numbers, until you get one whose square is the desired number (in this case 144), or (in other cases), close enough to the desired number (since any whole number which is not a "perfect square" has an irrational square root).
