Show that each of the following numbers is a perfect square. Also find the number whose square is the given number in each case :
(i) 1156
(ii) 2025
(iii) 14641
(iv) 4761.
To do :
We have to show that each of the given number is a perfect square and find the numbers whose squares are the given numbers.
Solution:
Perfect Square: A perfect square has each distinct prime factor occurring an even number of times.
(i) Prime factorisation of 1156 $=2\times2\times17\times17$
$=(2)^2\times(17)^2$
$=(2\times17)^2$
$=(34)^2$
1156 has distinct prime factors occurring an even number of times.
Therefore, 1156 is a perfect square and it is a square of 34.
(ii) Prime factorisation of 2025 $=3\times3\times3\times3\times5\times5$
$=(3)^2\times(3)^2\times(5)^2$
$=(3\times3\times5)^2$
$=(45)^2$
2025 has distinct prime factors occurring an even number of times.
Therefore, 2025 is a perfect square and it is a square of 45.
(iii) Prime factorisation of 14641 $=11\times11\times11\times11$
$=(11)^2\times(11)^2$
$=(11\times11)^2$
$=(121)^2$
14641 has distinct prime factors occurring an even number of times.
Therefore, 14641 is a perfect square and it is a square of 121.
(iv) Prime factorisation of 4761 $=3\times3\times23\times23$
$=(3)^2\times(23)^2$
$=(3\times23)^2$
$=(69)^2$
4761 has distinct prime factors occurring an even number of times.
Therefore, 4761 is a perfect square and it is a square of 69.
