1 and 2

Explanation:

So the way you have to think about this is to look at the perfect square numbers next to 2. Those two numbers would be 1 and 4. So now, we can put this information together in an inequality.

1<2<4

(sqrt1)<(sqrt2)<(sqrt4)

1<(sqrt2)<2

So that's your answer. sqrt2 is between 1 and 2.
