MCQ

The number which exceeds its positive square root by $12$ is

A
$9$
✓
$16$
C
$25$
D
None of these

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

$16$

b
(b) Let the required number is $x$

So, $x = \sqrt x + 12\,\,\, \Rightarrow x - 12 = \sqrt x $

==> ${x^2} - 25x + 144 = 0$

==> ${x^2} - 16x - 9x + 144 = 0$$ \Rightarrow x = 16$

=Since $x = 9$ does not hold the condition.

Trick : By inspection, since $16$ exceeds its positive square root i.e.,$4$ by $12$.
