Which is a perfect square 196 or 96?
196 is a perfect square because 196 = 14*14.96 is a not perfect square.
What is the product of the square root of 8 and square root of 12?
4*sqrt(6) sqrt(8)*sqrt(12)=sqrt(96) [because sqrt(a)*sqrt(b)=sqrt(a*b)] To get sqrt(96) in simplest form, find the largest perfect square that is a factor of 96. This is 16 (since 16 is a perfect square and 16*6=96). So in simplest form, sqrt(96)=sqrt(16)*sqrt(6)=4*sqrt(6).
Why is a number a perfect square?
you can multiply two whole numbers together to get that. if you use graph paper, you could make a perfect square. the area of that square is called a perfect square because you can make a perfect square using that many units as the area. for example 4x4=16, so 16 would be the perfect square.
How many square feet is 8'x12'?
96 square feet
How do you simplify the square root of -96?
In simple terms, negative numbers don't have square roots. If you multiply a number by itself, you can never get a negative number for the answer. Square a negative or a positive, you get a positive; square zero, you get zero.Now, if you get fancy, you could say that while a negative number has no real square roots, you can make one up by inventing the imaginary number i, which is the number that when squared, equals -1. Then you can say that sqrt (-96) = [ sqrt(-1) ] * [ (sqrt(96) ] = i*sqrt(96). From here, you can go ahead and simplify sqrt(96) ...Look for a perfect square factor, and take it out of the root: 96 = 4x24 = 4x4x6 = 16x6; sqrt(96) = sqrt(16)*sqrt(6) = 4sqrt(6).So sqrt(-96) = i*4sqrt(6), which is customarily written as 4isqrt6(You would write a radical sign wherever it says "sqrt" above.)
