To find $\sqrt{5}$ , Beau found $2^2 = 4$ and $3^2 = 9$ . He said that since 5 is between 4 and 9, $\sqrt{5}$ , is between 2 and 3. Beau thinks a good estimate for $\sqrt{5}$ , is $\frac{2 + 3}{2} = 2.5$ Is his estimate high or low? How do you know?

Answer:

The estimation is high because 5 is very close to 4 so $\sqrt{5}$ will also be very close to $\sqrt{4}$ which is lower than the estimate

In order to get a good estimate

The first step is to choose a number between 2 and 3 let say 2.8 , 2,85 , 2.9 and the square them

i.e

$2.1^2 = 4.41$

$2.2^2 = 4.84$

$2.3^2 = 5.29$

From here we can see that $\sqrt{5}$ lies between 2.2 and 2.3 but is closer to 2.2

So a good estimate for $\sqrt{5}$ is 2.2

I NEED HELP ill mark brainilist to best answer

All you have to do is add up the side lengths we already know then subtract by the perimeter.
60.3 is the side lengths all together that we know
82-60.3=21.7
Hope this helped!!
