Squares up to 10 x 10

Learning Objectives Define a square number as a number multiplied by itself. Identify the first 10 square numbers (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100). Calculate the product of any number multiplied by itself, up to 10 x 10. Represent a square number by drawing a square array. Explain why these products are called 'square numbers' by relating them to the shape of a square. Solve simple word problems involving square numbers. Have you ever noticed that a checkerboard has the same number of squares going across as it does going down? ♟️ Let's find out the special math behind that perfect shape! In this lesson, we will learn about a special kind of multiplication: multiplying a number by itself! These are called 'square numbers,' and learning them wi...

TermDefinitionExample FactorA number that is multiplied with another number to get a product.In 3 x 3 = 9, both 3s are factors.

Perfect SquareAnother name for a square number.Since 8 x 8 = 64, the number 64 is a perfect square.

The Squaring Rule n \times n = \text{square number} To find the square of any number, you just multiply that number by itself. For example, to find the square of 7, you calculate 7 x 7. The Area of a Square Formula \text{Area} = \text{side} \times \text{side} The space inside a square is its area. You can find it by multiplying the length of one side by itself, which always gives you a square number. The Exponent for Squares n^2 = n \times n Sometimes you will see a small '2' next to a number. This is a shortcut that means 'squared,' or 'multiply the number by itself'. So, 5² means 5 x 5.
