Short Answer Type(–1) = 1. Is –1, a square root of 1?
(–2)2 = 4. Is –2, a square root of 4?
(–9)2 = 81. Is –9, a square root of 81?
Long Answer TypeBy repeated subtraction of odd numbers starting from 1, find whether the following numbers are perfect squares or not? If the number is a perfect square, then find its square root.
(i) 121 (ii) 55 (iii) 36
(iv) 49 (v) 90
Short Answer TypeWhat could be the possible ‘one’s’ digits of the square root of each of the following numbers?
(i) 9801 (ii) 99856 (iii) 998001 (iv) 657666025
Without doing any calculation, find the numbers which are surely not perfect squares.
(i) 152 (ii) 257 (iii) 408 (iv) 441
Find the square roots of 100 and 169 by the method of repeated subtraction.
(i)
We have 100 - 1 = 99 99 - 3 = 96 96 - 5 = 91
91 - 7 = 84 84 - 9 = 75 75 - 11 = 64
64 - 13 = 51 51 - 15 = 36 36 - 17 = 19
19 - 19 = 0
∵ We reach at 0 by successive subtraction of 10 odd numbers.
∴ 
= 10
∵ We reach at 0 by successive subtraction of 13 odd numbers.
∴ 
= 13
Can we say that if a perfect square is of n-digits, then its square root will have 
digits if n is even of 
if n is odd?
