Resumen
In this paper the properties of R´edei rational functions are used to derive rational approximations for square roots and both Newton and Pad´e approximations are given as particular cases. As a consequence, such approximations can be derived directly by power matrices. Moreover, R´edei rational functions are introduced as convergents of particular periodic continued fractions and are applied for approximating square roots in the field of p-adic numbers and to study periodic representations. Using the results over the real numbers, we show how to construct periodic continued fractions and approximations of square roots which are simultaneously valid in the real and in the p-adic field.
