(√4)+5 =
$$\sqrt{\mathrm{4}}+\mathrm{5}\:= \\ $$
Answered by FilupSmith last updated on 03/Sep/16
(√4)=±2  ∴(√4)+5=5±2=3, 7
$$\sqrt{\mathrm{4}}=\pm\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\therefore\sqrt{\mathrm{4}}+\mathrm{5}=\mathrm{5}\pm\mathrm{2}=\mathrm{3},\:\mathrm{7} \\ $$

(√4)≠±2  (√4)=+2  (√(    ))   is uded only for positive square-root.
$$\sqrt{\mathrm{4}}\neq\pm\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\sqrt{\mathrm{4}}=+\mathrm{2} \\ $$$$\sqrt{\:\:\:\:}\:\:\:{is}\:{uded}\:{only}\:{for}\:{positive}\:{square}-{root}. \\ $$

4=2^2   4=(−2)^2   so doesn′t (√4)=±2?
$$\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{4}=\left(−\mathrm{2}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{so}\:\mathrm{doesn}'\mathrm{t}\:\sqrt{\mathrm{4}}=\pm\mathrm{2}? \\ $$

4 has no doubt two square roots  but the symbol (√(   ))  is used for +ve  square root only. For −ve square root  symbol  −(√(    ))    is used.For both roots    ±(√(     ))  is used. I think.  So          (√4) =2      −(√4) =−2     ±(√4) =±2
