Using differentials, find the approximate value of `sqrt(401)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We have to find the approximate value of
`sqrt401 = sqrt(400+1)`
​Let` y=f(x)= sqrtx`
`​y+Δy= sqrt(x+Δx)`
​`⇒Δy= sqrt(x+Δx)- sqrtx`
​Also,`Δy=f' (x)Δx`
`⇒ sqrt(x+Δx)− sqrtx=1/(2 sqrtx)Deltax`
Put `x=400,Δx=1`
`⇒ sqrt401 − sqrt400=1/40`
`=> sqrt401 ...
