Here we will be knowing a square root of a number as mentioned in Sadratnamālā.
Verse
शुद्धवर्गस्य मूलेन द्विघ्नेनावर्गतो हृतम् ।
तदादिमूलं तद्वर्गः शोध्यो वर्गात् पुनस्तथा ॥ १४ ॥
(Having deducted the maximum possible square from the last square place) divide the non-square place by twice the square root (of the maximum square earlier deducted)[1]. Deduct the square (of the quotient) from the next square place. Repeat this (to get the square root).
The number whose square root is to be determined, is denoted by placing the digits in a line. The odd places counted from right to left are the square places and the even places are the non-square places, as mentioned earlier. The maximum possible square (of numbers one to nine) is subtracted from the digit or digits in the last square place and keep the square root in a separate place. This is prathamaphala (the first result). Place the digit of the next non-square place on the right of the remainder and divide by twice the first result. This is dvitiyaphala (the second result). Place the digit of the next square place on the right of the remainder and deduct square of the quotient from it. Place the digit of the next non-square place on the right of the new remainder and divide by twice the second result. This is tṛtiyaphala (the third result). Place the digit of the next non-square place on the right of the remainder and divide by twice the third result. This is repeated until all the digits are exhausted.
Example: Square root of 877969
Denote the the odd places from right to left are square (S) places and the even places are the non-square (N) places.
Note: Prathamaphala = First result; Dvitīyaphala = Second result; Tṛtīyaphala = Third result

÷ 2 X 93 = 186 | 1 | 3 | 0 | 6 | (7 (7- Tṛtīyaphala) | Place the digit of the next non-square place (6) on the right of the new remainder (130). Now the number is 1306 and divide by twice the second result (93) = 186. | ||
1 | 3 | 0 | 2 | Subtract the above number from the maximum possible number 186 X 7 = 1302. Here the quotient is 7. 7 is tṛtiyaphala. | 9 3 7 | |||
4 | 9 | Place the digit of the next square place (9) on the right of the remainder (4), Now the number is 49 | ||||||

Since the remainder is zero the given number is a perfect square.
Square root of 877969 = 937
Example: Square root of 11943936
Denote the the odd places from right to left are square (S) places and the even places are the non-square (N) places.
Note: Prathamaphala = First result; Dvitīyaphala = Second result; Tṛtīyaphala = Third result
