Answers

1. Answer :

The square numbers will end with the digits 0, 1, 4, 5, 6 and 9 only.

Examples :

10² = 10 × 10 = 100

11² = 11 × 11 = 121

12² = 12 × 12 = 144

5² = 5 × 5 = 25

6² = 6 × 6 = 36

13² = 13 × 13 = 169

2. Answer :

If a number ends with the digit 1 or 9, its square will end with the digit 1.

Examples :

11² = 11 × 11 = 121

9² = 9 × 9 = 81

3. Answer :

If a number ends with the digit 2 or 8, its square will end with the digit 4.

Examples :

12² = 12 × 12 = 144

14² = 14 × 14 = 196

4. Answer :

If a number ends with the digit 3 or 7, its square will end with the digit 9.

Examples :

13² = 13 × 13 = 169

17² = 17 × 17 = 289

5. Answer :

If a number ends with the digit 4 or 6, its square will end with the digit 6.

Examples :

14² = 14 × 14 = 196

16² = 16 × 16 = 256

6. Answer :

If a number ends with the digit 0 or 5, its square also will end with the digit 0 or 5 resepctively.

Examples :

10² = 10 × 10 = 100

15² = 15 × 15 = 225

7. Answer :

Square of an odd number is always odd.

Examples :

7² = 7 × 7 = 49

19² = 19 × 19 = 361

8. Answer :

Square of an even number is always even.

Examples :

4² = 4 × 4 = 16

12² = 12 × 12 = 144

9. Answer :

Numbers that end with 2,3,7 and 8 are not perfect squares.

Examples :

13, 32, 47

10. Answer :

If the square of a natural number other than 1 is squared, the result is either a multiple of 3 or exceeds a multiple of 3 by 1 or a multiple of 4 or exceeds a multiple of 4 by 1.

Examples :

2² = 2 × 2 = 4 (multiple of 4)

2² = 2 × 2 = 4 (exceeds a multiple of 3 by 1)

3² = 3 × 3 = 9 (multiple of 3)

5² = 5 × 5 = 25 (exceeds a multiple of 4 by 1)

11. Answer :

The remainder of a perfect square when divided by 3, is either 0 or 1 but never 2.

12. Answer :

The remainder of a perfect square, when divided by 4, is either 0 or 1 but never 2 and 3.

13. Answer :

When a perfect square number is divided by 8, the remainder is either 0 or 1 or 4, but will never be equal to 2, 3, 5, 6 or 7.

14. Answer :

Given : Area the square field = 3136 ft²

Find the square root of 3136 by long division.

The side of square field :

= 56 ft.

The perimeter of the square field :

= 4 × side

= 4 × 56

= 224 ft.

15. Answer :

The transactions can be visualised as follows :

= 39 × 39 + 100 × 64

= 1521 + 64000

= 7921 yd²

Find the square root of 7921 by long division.

Length of a side of the new square plot :

= 89 yd.

16. Answer :

Most mathematical operations have ‘inverse’ (meaning ‘opposite’) operations. For example, subtraction is the inverse of addition, division is the inverse of multiplication etc., Squaring also has an inverse operation namely finding the Square root.

If you square 5, it results 25. If you find square root of 25, it will result 5.

5² = 25

√25 = 5

17. Answer :

The square root of a number is either positive or negative.

For example, 5² = 25. So, 5 is a square root of 25. Similarly, (–5)² = 25. So, (–5) is also a square root of 25.

√25 = ±5

√25 = -5 or +5

18. Answer :

Step 1 :

Write 324 as the product of its prime factors

Step 2 :

Group the identical factors in pairs.

Step 3 :

Take one prime factor out for every two identical prime factors multiplied inside the square root.

324 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3

= 2² × 3² × 3²

= (2 × 3 × 3)²

= 2 × 3 × 3

= 18

19. Answer :

Write 250 as the product of its prime factors

Here,

250 = 5 × 5 × 5 × 2

250 = 5² × 5 × 2

Here, the prime factors 5 and 2 do not have pairs.

10 is a least common multiple of 5 and 2.

So, 250 can either be divided by 10 or multiplied 10,

If 250 is multiplied by 10,

250 × 10 = 5² × 5 × 2 × 10

2500 = 5² × 5 × 2 × 5 × 2

Square root of 2500 :

= 5 × 5 × 2

= 50

If 250 is divided by 10,

25 = 5²

Square root of 25 :

= 5

20. Answer :

Write 108 as the product of its prime factors

Here,

108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3

= 2² × 3² × 3

Here, the prime factor 3 does not have a second pair.

So, 108 is not a perfect square number.

21. Answer :

x² = 459684

The square root of 459684 can be found by long division as shown below.

x = ± 678

Since x > 0,

x = 678
