Square root of 5 minus square root of 84 (√5-√84)

√5 - √84

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 5 and the square root of 84. Essentially, we will calculate √5 - √84.

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 5:
√5 ≈ 2.23607

2. Calculate the square root of 84:
√84 ≈ 9.16515

3. Subtract the square root of 84 from the square root of 5:
2.23607 - 9.16515 = -6.92908

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 84 from the square root of 5 is approximately -6.92908.

√5 - √84 ≈ -6.92908

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

√5 - 2√21
