ML Aggarwal Class 8 Solutions for ICSE Maths Chapter 3 Squares and Square Roots Ex 3.2
Question 1.
Write five numbers which you can decide by looking at their one’s digit that they are not square numbers.
Solution:
We know that a number which ends with the digits 2,3, 7 or 8
at its unit places, is not a perfect square.
For example:
372, 563, 111, 978, 1282 are not square numbers.
Question 2.
What will be the unit digit of the squares of the following numbers?
(i) 951
(ii) 502
(iii) 329
(iv) 643
(v) 5124
(vi) 7625
(vii) 68327
(viii) 95628
(ix) 99880
(x) 12796
Solution:
The unit digit of the square of the following numbers will be
(i) 951: Its square will have unit digit = 1
(ii) 502: Its square will have unit digit = 4
(iii) 329: Its square will have unit digit = 1
(iv) 643: Its square will have unit digit = 9
(v) 5124: Its square will have unit digit = 6
(vi) 7625: Its square will have unit digit = 5
(vii) 68327: Its square will have unit digit = 9
(viii) 95628: Its square will have unit digit = 4
(ix) 99880: Its square will have unit digit = 0
(x) 12796: Its square will have unit digit = 6
Question 3.
The following numbers are obviously not perfect. Give reason.
(i) 567
(ii) 2453
(iii) 5298
(iv) 46292
(v) 74000
Solution:
We know that if the square of a number does not have
2, 3, 7, 8 or 0 (in an odd number) as its unit digit.
So, the squares 567, 2453, 5208, 46292 and 74000 can’t be the
perfect squares as they have 7, 2, 8, 2 digits at the unit place.
Question 4.
The square of which of the following numbers would be an odd number or an even number? Why?
(i) 573
(ii) 4096
(iii) 8267
(iv) 37916
Solution:
We know that the square of an odd number is odd and
a square of an even number is even. Therefore:
(i) 573, (iii) 8262 are odd numbers.
So, their squares will also be an odd number and
(ii) 4096 and (iv) 37916 are even numbers.
So, their square will be also even-numbered.
Question 5.
How many natural numbers lie between square of the following numbers?
(i) 12 and 13
(ii) 90 and 91
Solution:
(i) Numbers of natural number between
the squares of 12 and 13
= (132 – 122) – 1 = (13 + 12 – 1)
= 25 – 1 = 24
(ii) Between 90 and 91
= (912 – 902) – 1 = (91 + 90 – 1)
= 181 – 1 = 180
Question 6.
Without adding, find the sum.
(i) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15
(ii) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25 + 27 + 29
Solution:
Find the sum of:
(i) 1+3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 = n2
Here n = 8
Sum = (8)2 = 64
(ii) 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25 + 27 + 29 = n2
Sum = 152 (Here n = 15)
Sum = 225
Question 7.
(i) Express 64 as the sum of 8 odd numbers.
(ii) 121 as the sum of 11 odd numbers.
Solution:
(i) 64 as the sum of odd number
= (8)2 = n2
= 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 (Here n = 8)
(ii) 121 = (11)2
= 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 +11 + 13 + 15 +17 + 19 + 21 = n2 (Here n = 11)
Question 8.
Express the following as the sum of two consecutive integers:
(i) 192
(ii) 332
(iii) 472
Solution:
Question 9.
Find the squares of the following numbers without actual multiplication:
(i) 31
(ii) 42
(iii) 86
(iv) 94
Solution:
Using (a + b)2 – a2 + 2ab + b2
(i) (31)2 = (30 + 1)2
= (30)2 + 2 × 30 + 1 + (1)2
= 900 + 60 + 1 = 961
(ii) (42)2 = (40 + 2)2
= (40)2 + 2 × 40 × 2 + (2)2
= 1600 + 160 + 4 = 1764
(iii) (86)2 = (80 + 6)2
= (80)2 + 2 × 80 × 6 + (6)2
= 6400 + 960 + 36 = 7396
(iv) (94)2 = (90 + 4)2
= (90)2 + 2 × 90 × 4 + (4)2
= 8100 + 720 + 16 = 8836
Question 10.
Find the squares of the following numbers containing 5 in unit’s place:
(i) 45
(ii) 305
(iii) 525
Solution:
(i) (45)2 = (n5)2
= (n)(n + 1) hundred + (5)2
= 4 × 5 hundred + 25
= 2000 + 25 = 2025
(ii) (305)2 = (30 × 31) hundred + 25
= 93000 + 25 = 93025
(iii) (525)2 = (52 × 53) hundred + 25
= 275600 + 25 = 275625
Question 11.
Write a Pythagorean triplet whose one number is
(i) 8
(ii) 15
(iii) 63
(iv) 80
Solution:
Pythagoras triplet whose one number is
(i) 8
Let n = 8, then the triplet will be
2n, n2 – 1, n2 + 1
If 2n = 8, then n = \(\frac{8}{2}\) = 4
∴ n2 – 1 = 42 – 1 = 16 – 1 = 15
and n2 + 1 = 42 + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17
∴ Triplet is 8, 15, 17
(ii) 15
Let 2n = 15, then n = \(\frac{n}{2}\) which is not possible
or n2 – 1 = 15 ⇒ n2 = 15 + 1 = 16 = (4)2
∴ n = 4
Now, 2n = 2 × 4 = 8
n2 – 1 = 15
n2 + 1 = 42 + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17
∴ Triplet is 8, 15, 17
(iii) 63
Let n2 – 1 = 63 ⇒ n2 = 63 + 1 = 64 = (8)2
∴ n = 8
Now, 2n = 2 × 8 = 16
n2 – 1 = 63
n2 + 1 = 82 + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65
∴ Triplet is 16, 63, 65
(iv) 80
Let 2n = 80 ⇒ n = \(\frac{80}{2}\) =40
∴ n2 – 1 = 402 – 1 = 1600 – 1 = 1599
and n2 + 1 = 402 + 1 = 1600 + 1 = 1601
∴ Triplet is 80, 1599, 1601
Question 12.
Observe the following pattern and find the missing digits:
212 = 441
2012 = 40401
20012 = 4004001
200012 = 4 – – – 4 – – – 1
2000012 = ————–
Solution:
212 = 441
2012 = 40401
20012 = 4004001
Similarly, 200012 = 400040001
2000012 = 40000400001
Question 13.
Observe the following pattern and find the missing digits:
92 = 81
992 = 9801
9992 = 998001
99992 = 99980001
999992 = 9——–8———01
9999992 = 9——–0———1
Solution:
92 = 81
992 = 9801
9992 = 998001
99992 = 99980001
Similarly, 999992 = 9999800001
and 9999992 = 9999998000001
Question 14.
Observe the following pattern and find the missing digits:
72 = 49
672 = 4489
6672 = 444889
66672 = 44448889
666672 = 4 ———–8 ————– 9
6666672 = 4———–8————8 –
Solution:
72 = 49
672 = 4489
6672 = 444889
66672 = 44448889
Similarly, 666672 = 4444488889
6666672 = 444444888889
