Question
Represent geometrically the following numbers on the number line: $\sqrt{8.1}$
✓
Answer
Firstly, we draw a line segment AB = 8.1 units and extend it toC such that SC = 1 unit. Let O be the mid-point of AC. Now, draw a semi-circle with centre 0 and radius OA. Let us draw BD perpendicular to AC passing through point 6 intersecting the semi-circle at point D. Hence, the distance BD is $\sqrt{8.1}\text{ units}.$ Draw an arc with centre Sand radius BD, meeting AC produced at E, then BE = BD = $\sqrt{8.1}\text{ units}.$
