8th grade / Number / Powers & Roots / Squares and cubes / Calculate square roots
To calculate the square root of a number, we need to find a number which when multiplied by itself gives the original number. The square root of a number is denoted by the symbol √.
For example: √9 = 3 because 3 x 3 = 9
To calculate the square root of a number using a calculator, we can simply enter the number and press the square root button (√). For example, to calculate the square root of 16, we can enter 16 and press the square root button to get the answer 4.
Sometimes we need to find the nearest integer to the square root of a number because the answer is not an integer. For example, the square root of 17 is approximately 4.12, so the nearest integer to the square root of 17 is 4. Here are some more examples:
Square root of 25 is √25 = 5
Square root of 121 is √121 = 11
√50 = ~7.07 which is 7 to the nearest integer
√150 = ~12.25 which is 12 to the nearest integer
√120 = ~10.95 which is 11 to the nearest integer
In this topic you are asked to calculate the square root or the nearest integer to the square root for numbers up to 300.
With our Pong math game you will be practicing the topic "Calculate square roots" from 8th grade / Number / Powers & Roots / Powers & Roots. The math in this game consists of 22 questions that ask you to calculate the square root or nearest integer to the square root for the given numbers.
In our version of Pong/Breakout, there are 3 types of bricks for you to break: green bricks are worth just 2 points; yellow bricks are worth a whopping 50 points; breaking white bricks, which are worth 10 points, wins you a math question from the topic you have chosen.
You start with 5 lives. If the ball goes below the paddle, you lose a life and 200 points. The game ends when you answer all 10 questions or lose all your lives.
