The correct answers are:
If I wanted to estimate sqrt (59) the first step would be to find the two non-perfect squares that 59 lies between on the number line. The closest perfect square less than 59 is 49. The closest perfect square greater than 59 is 64. I could then think about the number 59 and how close it is to the smaller perfect square and the larger perfect square. I could then take the square root of the perfect squares to see how I would estimate sqrt (59). The sqrt (59) is closest to 7.
