AP State Syllabus 8th Class Maths Solutions 6th Lesson Square Roots and Cube Roots Exercise 6.1

Question 1.
 What will be the units digit of the square of the following numbers?
 (i) 39
 (ii) 297
 (iii) 5125
 (iv) 7286
 (v) 8742
 Solution:
| Number | Square of the units digIt | Units digit of a squared number | 
| i) 39 | 92 = 9 x 9 = 81 | 1 | 
| ii) 297 | 72 = 7 x 7 = 49 | 9 | 
| Iii) 5125 | 52 = 5 x 5 = 25 | 5 | 
| iv) 7286 | 62 = 6 x 6 = 36 | 6 | 
| v) 8742 | 22 = 2 x 2 = 4 | 4 | 

Question 2.
 Which of the following numbers are perfect squares?
 (i) 121
 (ii) 136
 (iii) 256
 (iv) 321
 (v) 600
 Solution:
| Number | Prime factorizatlon | Perfect square numbers Yes/No | 
| i) 121 | 121 = 11 x 11 = 112 | yes | 
| ii) 136 | 136 = 8 x 17 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 17 | No | 
| iii) 256 | 256 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 28 = (24)2 | yes | 
| iv) 321 | 321 = 3 x 107 | No | 
| v) 600 | 600 = 120 x 5 = 12 x 10 x 5 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 | No | 
Question 3.
 The following numbers are not perfect squares. Give reasons?
 (i) 257
 (ii) 4592
 (iii) 2433
 (iv) 5050
 (v) 6098
 Solution:
 i) 257 → The units digit of the number is 7. So it is not a perfect square number.
 ii) 4592 → The units digit of the number is 2. So it is not a perfect square number.
 iii) 2433 → The units digit of the number is 3. So, it is not a perfect square number.
 Iv) 5050 → The last two digits of the number are not two zero’s. So, it is not a perfect square number.
 v) 6098 → The units digit of the number is 8. So It is not a perfect square number

Question 4.
 Find whether the square of the following numbers are even or odd?
 (i) 431
 (ii) 2826
 (iii) 8204
 (iv) 17779
 (v) 99998
 Solution:
| Number | Units digit of square of a number | Even / Odd | 
| (i) 431 | 12 = 1 | 1 , odd | 
| (ii) 2826 | 62 = 36 | 6, odd | 
| (iii) 8204 | 42 = 16 | 6 , even | 
| (iv)17779 | 92 = 81 | 1 , odd | 
| (v) 99998 | 82 = 64 | 4 , even | 
Question 5.
 How many numbers lie between the square of the following numbers
 (i) 25; 26
 (ii) 56; 57
 (iii) 107;108
 Solution:
 The numbers lie between the square of the numbers are:
 1) 25,26 → 2 x 25=50
 ii) 56, 57 → 2 x 56 = 112
 iii) 107, 108 → 2 x 107 = 214

Question 6.
 Without adding, find the sum of the following numbers
 (i) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 =
 (ii) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 =
 (iii) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25 =
 Solution:
 (i) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 = (5)2 = 5 x 5 = 25
 [∵ Sum of ‘n’ consecutive odd number = n2]
 (ii) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 = 92 = 9 x 9 = 81
 (iii) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25 = 132 = 13 x 13 = 169
