How to find Square Root of a number

Finding root of a number
To find Root of a number we have to follow some basic rules.
The first and last rule is just a square table
(In this scenario we do some comparisons with known values)
Te table values :
Number Square
1 1
2 4
3 9
4 16
5 25
6 36
7 49
8 64
9 81
10 100

By observing the above table we can conclude that (by comparing both first digits of numbers )
Square first digit Number
1 1 or 9
  4  2 or 8
9 3 or 7
6 4 or 6
5 5
0 0

By using following table-2
if the number first digit is 9 then The root of that number  first digit is   3 or 7
if the number first digit is 6 then The root of that number  first digit is  4 or 6
Note: By observing first table square column we can conclude that square root of any number doesnot ends with 2 ,3,7 or 8

To find Square roots of unknown numbers we have to use some simple known values.
At last we reached the end to find square roots of a number just follow the TABLE-2 AND TABLE-3
Number Square
10 100
20 400
30 900
40 1600
50 2500
60 3600
70 4900
80 6400
90 8100
100 10000
Example :
Find square root of  7744 ?
Solution :
Step 1 : 7744 first digit is 4 so the square root  first digit is 2 or 8.
Step 2 : compare this number with second table. The value is in between 80 and 90 so that the number may be 81,82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89.

Step 3 : By using Step 1 we can conclude that the number First digit is 2 or 8 so The Number is either 82 or 88.
Step 4 : If 7744 is close to 6400 then answer will be 82.
Step 5 : If 7744 is close to 8100 then then answer will be 88.
