With your strip horizontally in front of you, Ex: measure 5 in. from the left end and fold that section under the longer part of the strip. You should now have the 40 in. section in front of you.</p><p>Tasks:  Draw a number line towards the center of the strip. 5) What square root of a perfect square is each closest  Starting at the fold, measure and mark every two to? inches with a smaller mark in the middle to represent every 1 in. How do you know it is closest to that square root? 1) List all the perfect squares from 1 to 400. ______6) Now looking back at your number line, do you think 2) Plot each of the perfect squares as square roots on the any square roots should move?
