It is irrational, because it is not a perfect square. For example, if you have a number that is perfect like the square root of 100, it would be 10, which is a rational number. An irrational number like 16.4 which would be a not so accurate result like 6.447583839, those are irrational numbers. Hope this helps!

no square root of 9 is 3 which is rational -- to be more specific: an irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed as a fraction. Pi, for example, is one of these numbers. If a number is not a perfect square (4, 16, 9, 144, 225, etc.), then it's square root is likely to be an irrational number. For example, the square root of 2 (1.41421356...) is an irrational number because it cannot accurately be expressed as a fraction.


How do you figure the square root of 144?

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).
