Answer:
256 = 162
576 = 242
4096 = 642
∴ 256, 576, and 4096 are perfect squares
Question 2.
One can judge just by look that each of the following numbers 82, 113, 1972, 2057, 8888, 24353 is not a perfect square. Explain why?
Answer:

In this case, if we want to find the smallest factor with which we can multiply or divide 108 to get a square number, what should we do?
Answer:
108 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 22 × 32 × 3
If we multiply the factors by 2, then we get
22 × 32 × 3 × 3 = 22 × 32 × 32 = (2 × 3 × 3)2
Which is perfect square.
∴ Again if we divide by 3 then we get 22 × 32 ⇒ (2 × 3)2, a perfect square.
∴ We have to multiply or divide 108 by 3 to get a perfect square.

Find the ones digit in the cubes of each of the following numbers.
(i) 12
(ii) 27
(iii) 38
(iv) 53
(v) 71
(vi) 84
Answer:
(i) 12
12 ends with 2, so its cube ends with 8 i.e. ones digit in 123 is 8.
(ii) 27
27 ends with 7, so its cube end with 3. i.e., ones digit in 273 is 3.
(iii) 38
38 ends with 8, so its cube ends with 2 i.e. ones digit in 383 is 2.
(iv) 53
53 ends with 3, so its cube ends with 7. i.e, ones digit in 533 is 7.
(v) 71
71 ends with 1, so its cube ends with 1. i.e. ones digit in 713 is 1
(vi) 84
84 ends with 4, so its cube ends with 4. i.e, ones digit in 843 is 4.

Expand the following numbers using exponents:
(i) 8120
(ii) 20,305
(iii) 3652.01
(iv) 9426.521
Answer:
(i) 8120
8120 = (8 × 1000) + (1 × 100) + (2 x×10) + 0 × 1
= (8 × 103) + (1 × 102) + (2 × 101)
(ii) 20,305
20305 = (2 × 10000) + (0 × 1000) + (3 × 100) + (0 × 10) + (5 × 1)
= (2 × 104) + (3 × 102) + 5
