Note that

10² = 100

0.08² = 0.0064

and

101.6064 = 100 + 1.6 + 0.0064

It also happens that

1.6 = 2 • 10 • 0.08

which means

101.6064 = 100 + 1.6 + 0.0064

101.6064 = 10² + 2 • 10 • 0.08 + 0.08²

101.6064 = (10 + 0.08)²

101.6064 = 10.08²

which means

√101.6064 = 10.08

which, to one decimal place, is approximately 10.1.
