square root Well first we have screwed a forty five
- 00:29
and factor the perfect square nine there from forty five
- 00:33
and we get screwed in nine times Five is three

- 00:44
written as a multiple of the square root of five
- 00:46
So just subtract multiples of square to five it's just
- 00:49
like subtracting multiples of x And we get three times
- 00:52
square to five minus two times square to five which
- 00:55
is just the square root of five And so there
- 00:58
we have it Grow to forty five minus square twenty
