Square root of 2 minus square root of 10 (√2-√10)

√2 - √10

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 2 and the square root of 10. Essentially, we will calculate √2 - √10.

First, we need to find the square root of each number individually. Then we will subtract one from the other. Below is the step-by-step calculation:

1. Calculate the square root of 2:
√2 ≈ 1.41421

2. Calculate the square root of 10:
√10 ≈ 3.16228

3. Subtract the square root of 10 from the square root of 2:
1.41421 - 3.16228 = -1.74807

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 10 from the square root of 2 is approximately -1.74807.

√2 - √10 ≈ -1.74807

To make things even more convenient, we have also expressed the result in its simplest radical form:

√2 - √10
