Square root of 38 minus square root of 2 (√38-√2)

√38 - √2

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 38 and the square root of 2. Essentially, we will calculate √38 - √2.

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 38:
√38 ≈ 6.16441

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

3. Subtract the square root of 2 from the square root of 38:
6.16441 - 1.41421 = 4.7502

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 2 from the square root of 38 is approximately 4.7502.

√38 - √2 ≈ 4.7502

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

√38 - √2
