Column A	Column B
$b = \sqrt{1296}$
b	−36

Solution:

Concept:

The square root symbol

\sqrt{\ }

represents the principal (non-negative) square root.

Explanation:

Given:

b = \sqrt{1296}

Since

36^2 = 1296

, we get

\sqrt{1296} = 36

So,

b = 36

Column A is

36

Column B is

-36

Since

36 > -36

, Column A is greater.

Answer:

The quantity in Column A is greater, so the correct option is A.
