Use your understanding of perfect square numbers and their square roots to estimate non-perfect square numbers.
2
Estimating Square Roots
Determine which two integers the evaluated square root would be between. Perfect square numbers will help you to estimate.

Multiple Choice
What two integers is 5 between?
3 & 4
1 & 2
0 & 1
2 & 3
4
5 would land between 4 and 9
So the integers would be between 2 & 3.
5
Notice where it lands in between.
Its closer to the integer 2 because
5 is closer to 46
Multiple Choice
What two integers is −17 between?
-16 & -17
-4 & -5
-3 & -4
-5 & -6
7
−17 would land between −16 and −25
So the integers would be between -4 & -5.
8
Notice where it lands in between.
Its closer to the integer -4 because
−17 is closer to −169
Multiple Choice
What two integers is 89 between?
85 & 90
7 & 8
8 & 9
9 & 10
10
89 is between 81 & 100
So the integers were 9 & 10
11
Multiple Choice
What two integers is 250 between?
15 & 16
16 & 17
18 & 19
14 & 15
12
250 is between 225 & 256
So the integers were 15 & 16
13
Multiple Choice
What two integers is 150 between?
10 & 11
11 & 12
12 & 13
13 & 14
14
150 is between 144 & 169
So the integers were 12 & 13
