Hello,


0\leq a\leq 1 \Longrightarrow 0*a\leq a*a\leq 1*a \Longrightarrow 0 \leq a^2 \leq a\\\\0\leq a^2\leq a \Longrightarrow √(0) \leq √(a^2) \leq √(a) \\\\The\ function\ y=x^2\ is\ increasing\\\\Answer A\\\\ex: a=0.5 \\\\a^2=0.25\\\\√(a)=(√(2))/(2)\approx{0.7071...}\\\\and\ 0.25\leq 0.5 \leq 0.7071...
