Square of the number

     This article is used to find out the square of  a number in a short period of time compare to normal maths. It increase the speed of your calculations. The answer obtained by multiplying a number by itself is the square of that number.

Example :- 6×6= 36 which is the square of 6.

                        8×8= 64 which is the square of 8.

    

1. Square of numbers ending in 5 :-

Example 1-:

352 =  ?

Step 1:-Multiply the first part by the first part plus 1:

3×(3+1) =3×4 =12

Step 2:-Write the number 25 next to the result from step 1:

352 = 12_25 = 1225

Example 2-: (in 3 digits)

1252 =  ?

Step 1:-Multiply the first part by the first part plus 1:

12×(12+1) =12×13 =156

Step 2:-Write the number 25 next to the result from step 1:

1252 = 156_25 = 15625

Example 3-: (in decimal numbers)

9.52 =   ?

Step 1:-Multiply the first part by the first part plus 1:

9×(9+1) =9×10 =90

Step 2:-Write the number 25 next to the result from step 1:

9.52 = 90_25 = 90.25

Note :- Last digit 5 is the 2nd part and rest number is 1st part.

 

2.     The second method of doing squares is from this formula. Formula means by adding and subtracting. A square of one more or one less of a number (with unit digit zero) can be easily extracted by this method. In the same way, the square of a number can be known or can be easily known. Square of one less or one more of that number will also be found by this method.

Example 1 :- Help of 402=1600, We find square of 39 and 41.

392 = 402-40-39=1600-79=1521

412 = 402+40+41=1600+81=1681

Example 2 :- Help of 452=2025, We find square of 44 and 46.

442 = 452 -45-44 = 2025-89 = 1936

462 = 452+45+46 = 2025+91 = 2116

Example 3 :- Help of 4002=160000, We find square of 399 and 401.

3992 = 4002-400-399 =160000-799 = 159201

4012 = 4002+400+401 = 160000+801 = 160801

 

3.     Squaring number near base :-

When number is more than base

Example 1-:

1072 =  ?

Step 1 :- Find the difference between given number and base

Difference = 107-100=7

Step 2 :- Now add given number and difference

107+7=114

Step 3 :- Find the square of difference

72=49

Step 4 :- Write the result of step 3, next to the result from step 2:

1072 = 114_49 =11449

 

Example 2-:

1122 =  ?

Step 1 :- Find the difference between given number and base

Difference = 112-100=12

Step 2 :- Now add given number and difference

112+12=124

Step 3 :- Find the square of difference

122=144

Step 4 :- Write the result of step 3, next to the result from step 2:

1122= 124_144 =124+1_44=12544 (because base have 2 zeros)

 

Example 3-:

10112 =  ?

Step 1 :- Find the difference between given number and base

Difference = 1011-1000=11

Step 2 :- now add given number and difference

1011+11=1022

Step 3 :- Find the square of difference

112=121

Step 4 :- Write the result of step 3, next to the result from step 2:

10112= 1022_121 =1022121

When number is less than base

Example 4-:

972 =  ?

Step 1 :- Find the difference between given number and base

Difference = 100-97=3

Step 2 :- now subtract difference from given number

97-3=94

Step 3 :- Find the square of difference

32=09

Step 4 :- Write the result of step 3, next to the result from step 2:

972= 94_09 =9409

Note: 10,100,1000,10000 etc. are called base.


4.     This forth method is commonly used for squares of two-digit numbers. Before learning this, the student needs good practice of multiplication and division.

Formula : (a+b)2 = a2+2×a×b+b2

Let first digit = a , and second digit = b

Example 1 :- 492

1st part            2nd part            3rd part

   42                  2×4×9                  92

   16                   72                       81

   16                   72                      81

   16                 80(72+8)              1

   16                   80                        1

  24(16+8)           0                        1

    492 = 2401  is Answer

WORLD  HERITAGE  SITES IN  INDIA PART- 1  Why did UNESCO start the World Heritage Centre? The UNESCO World Heritage Centre was born by merging two separate movements. The first was a movement for the preservation of cultural sites. The second was a movement that dealt with the conservation of nature. The ball for the first movement was set rolling with the decision to build the Aswan High Dam in Egypt. This dam would have flooded the valley in which one of the treasures of ancient Egypt- the Abu Simbel temple- wsa located. In 1959 UNESCO launched a campaign to safeguard these temples. It was a joint effort of 50 countries, and it led to many other similar projects to safeguard rare treasures. It was the United States that led the movement to combine the conservation of natural wonders along with cultural sites.  World Heritage Fund- If 1972, the World Heritage Fund was created. Its aim is to assist nations in identifying, preserving, and promoting World Heritage...

What is Genetics

What is Genetics?     Have you ever wondered why some people are short while others are tall, or why some have brown eyes while others have black eyes? Genetics is the study of the ways in which different characteristics are passed from each generations of living things to the next. Genetics has many divisions like population genetics and epigenetics   What is DNA?     Each of us has a unique set of chemical blueprints that determine how our body looks and functions. These blueprints are contained in our DNA, which is the short form of deoxyribonucleic acid.    DNA is in the form of long spiral-shaped molecules found inside every cell. The instructions for constructing and maintaining cells are built into this molecule. DNA can copy itself so that all the new cells produced by a plant or animal, contain copies of the same set of genetic instructions, or genetic code. Every single living organism processes DNA. In fact, DNA defin...
