It is easiest to draw it using two right angled triangles.
Draw a line AB that is 2 units long. From B, draw BC which is perpendicular to AB and 2 units long. Join AC. From C, draw CD which is perpendicular to AC (clockwise if BC is clockwise from AB, or anticlockwise if BC is anticlockwise) and make CD 2 uinits long. Then AD is a line segment which is sqrt(12) units long.

Find the measure of one side of a square whose area is 144 cm2?
A square with an area of 144cm2 has sides of 12cm which is the square root of 144cm. 12cm x 12cm gives 144cm2.
How can you find the length of a line segment in the coordinate plane?
The formula is the square root of: (x2-x1)^2 plus (y2-y1)^2
What is the length of a diagonal of square whose side measures 12cm?
Using Pythagoras; theorem it is 12 times square root of 2 which is about 17 cm rounded to the nearest integer
Find the length of each segment tell whether the segments are congruent?
The length of segment AB (A(2,6), B(0,3)) and CD (C(-1,0), D(1,3)) is the square-root of 13. The two segments are congruent.
What is the Diagonal of a 24 by 36 foot building?
Pythagoras told us that the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the square root of the sum of the squares of the other two sides. If you draw a line from corner to opposite corner of your building you divide the floor into two triangles with the same length sides and the hypotenuse is the diagonal of the building. So, taking one of the two triangles the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the square root of 242 + 362 which is 43.27
How do you make square root spiral by paper folding and paper cutting?
First of all draw a line segment that is about 2 cm long between two points P0 and P1. At the one of the outer points, draw another line that is at an angle of 90 degrees from the first line segment. This will cause the new line segment to stand straight on the first segment. Draw another line segment between the not used endpoint of the new line segment, let's call it P2, and the not used endpoint of the first line segment. This will create a triangle. Now on the P2 endpoint, draw another line segment that is again at 90 degrees angle. Repeat the previous steps and you will have created a root spiral.
How do you represent root 17 on number line with steps?
First of all we can take a straight line,when we take a straight line we take a half circle in the left side of the line,then the end of a circle we take an CHAND and draw a 90 degree then it`s draw a root 2 we used this method we can easily draw a root 17.
What is the square root of 12cm?
You cannot have a square root of a linear measure: there is no such thing as a cm1/2.
How could you draw a segment that represents the square-root of 13?
Draw a right angled triangle with legs of lengths 2 and 3 units. The hypotenuse will be sqrt(13) units.
What are some math vocab words for fifth graders?
geometry, ray, line, line segment, square root, exponent, parenthesis
Find the measure of one side of a square whose area is 144 cm2?
A square with an area of 144cm2 has sides of 12cm which is the square root of 144cm. 12cm x 12cm gives 144cm2.
How draw square root of 2 on number line?
It'll be between 1 and 2
What is the length of a segment with endpoint at 8-6 and 10-6?
The length of the line segment is the square root of (x1-x2)2+(y1-y2)2
What are the dimensions of a square that has an area of 144 cm?
The square root of 144 is 12.12 x 12 = 144 so the dimensions would be 12cm by 12cm
How do you make a square root spiral?
Draw a horizontal line one unit long from the origin.Thenat the end this line line draw a perpendicular line with a length of 1 unit.join the end of this line to the origin.Go back to previous step and continue for ever.
What is the measurement of a line segment?
You take the two endpoints of a line segment, and use the distance formula on it. The distance formula is the square root of (x1-x1)2 + (y1-y2)2
Why are the absolute value symbols used when indicating the length of a line segment?
Because line segment lengths are often calculated as a square root, the absolute value symbols indicate it is only the positive solution that counts, as a distance cannot be negative.
