There are several methods. An easy one is trial-and-error: keep finding the square of several numbers; if the result is too high, choose a lower number, if it is too low, choose a higher number.
Repeated division works much faster. Let's assume you want the square root of 2. Your initial estimate for the square root is 1. You divide 2 / 1 = 2. Take the average of the last two numbers, 1.5. This is the next estimate. Repeat: Divide 2 / 1.5 = 1.33... The average of the last two numbers is about 1.4. Repeat, using this as your next estimate. The number of significant figures doubles with each repetition.

Why do you say approximate rather than compute when finding square roots when using a calculator or spreadsheet?
Well, it's both: you're using a machine to compute an approximation. Why isn't it exact? Most square roots (such as the square root of two) are irrational numbers, so their decimal representation requires an infinite number of digits. We humans have to have finite answers, hence we round off.
How many square feet is 32 feet x 12 feet roof?
384 square feet - without using a calculator !
What is the square root of 125 without using a calculator?
square root of 125= 25 times 5 under the radical (25 has a square root so you can take that out of the radical)= 5 times the square root of 5 (Thats your final answer with no calculator)
