Answer:

180

Explanation:

The square root of the number 180 would render the simplified radical expression:
6\,√(5)

We start by factoring completely the number 180:


180=2^2\,\,3^2\,\,5\\then:\\√(180) =√(2^2\,\,3^2\,\,5) \\√(180) =√(2^2)\,\,√(3^2)\,\,√(5)\\√(180) =2\,*\,3\,√(5)\\\\sqrt{180}=6\,√(5)
