Here is the answer of the given question above. In order to simplify the square root of 180, you need to search for a square number that is a factor of 180. It could be the following: 36 x 5, 4 x 45 or 9 x 20. Then once you are done with the factors, you can simply write it this way. √ 180 = √ 36*5. Then, this gives you 6√5. This is the exact form. The decimal form would be 13.41640786.
