Solution:

We know that natural numbers ending with the digits 0, 2, 3, 7 and 8 are not perfect square.

i. 153 is not perfect square because it ends with 3.

ii. 257 is not perfect square because it ends with 7

iii. 408 is not perfect square because it ends with 8

iv. 441 is  perfect square because it ends with 1

3. Find the square roots of 100 and 169 by the method of repeated subtraction.

Solution:

According to question:

Square root of 100

100 – 1 = 99

99 – 3 = 96

96 – 5 = 91

91 – 7 = 84

84 – 9 = 75

75 – 11 = 64

64 – 13 = 51

51 – 15 = 36

36 – 17 = 19

19 – 19 = 0

Here, we have performed subtraction ten times.

Hence, √100 = 10

Now, square root of 169

169 – 1 = 168

168 – 3 = 165

165 – 5 = 160

160 – 7 = 153

153 – 9 = 144

144 – 11 = 133

133 – 13 = 120

120 – 15 = 105

105 – 17 = 88

88 – 19 = 69

69 – 21 = 48

48 – 23 = 25

25 – 25 = 0

Here, we have performed subtraction thirteen times.

Hence, √169 = 13
