The product of multiplying an integer by itself is the square of a number. Square is used in programming, calculating areas, and so on. In the topic, we will discuss the square of 124.
The square of a number is the product of the number itself. The square of 124 is 124 × 124. The square of a number always ends in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9. We write it in math as 124², where 124 is the base and 2 is the exponent.
The square of a positive and a negative number is always positive. For example, 5² = 25; (-5)² = 25.
The square of 124 is 124 × 124 = 15376.
Square of 124 in exponential form: 124²
Square of 124 in arithmetic form: 124 × 124
The square of a number is multiplying the number by itself. So let’s learn how to find the square of a number. These are the common methods used to find the square of a number.
In this method, we will multiply the number by itself to find the square. The product here is the square of the number. Let’s find the square of 124.
Step 1: Identify the number. Here, the number is 124.
Step 2: Multiplying the number by itself, we get, 124 × 124 = 15376. The square of 124 is 15376.
In this method, the formula, a² is used to find the square of the number. Where a is the number.
Step 1: Understanding the equation Square of a number = a² a² = a × a
Step 2: Identifying the number and substituting the value in the equation. Here, ‘a’ is 124. So: 124² = 124 × 124 = 15376.
Using a calculator to find the square of a number is the easiest method. Let’s learn how to use a calculator to find the square of 124.
Step 1: Enter the number in the calculator Enter 124 in the calculator.
Step 2: Multiply the number by itself using the multiplication button (×) That is 124 × 124.
Step 3: Press the equal to button to find the answer Here, the square of 124 is 15376.
Tips and Tricks for the Square of 124 Tips and tricks make it easy for students to understand and learn the square of a number. To master the square of a number, these tips and tricks will help students. The square of an even number is always an even number. For example, 6² = 36. The square of an odd number is always an odd number. For example, 5² = 25. The last digit of the square of a number is always 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9. If the square root of a number is a fraction or a decimal, then the number is not a perfect square. For example, √1.44 = 1.2. The square root of a perfect square is always a whole number. For example, √144 = 12.
Mistakes are common among kids when doing math, especially when it is finding the square of a number. Let’s learn some common mistakes to master the squaring of a number.
Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 15376 cm².
The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 15376 cm² So, the length = √15376 = 124. The length of each side = 124 cm.
The length of a square is 124 cm. Because the area is 15376 cm², the length is √15376 = 124.
Anna is planning to carpet her square living room of length 124 feet. The cost to carpet a foot is 5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to carpet the full room?
The length of the room = 124 feet.
The cost to carpet 1 square foot of room = 5 dollars.
To find the total cost to carpet, we find the area of the room,
Area of the room = area of the square = a²
Here a = 124
Therefore, the area of the room = 124² = 124 × 124 = 15376.
The cost to carpet the room = 15376 × 5 = 76880.
The total cost = 76880 dollars.
To find the cost to carpet the room, we multiply the area of the room by cost to carpet per foot.
So, the total cost is 76880 dollars.
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 124 meters.
The area of the circle = 48285.76 m².
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 124
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 124²
= 3.14 × 124 × 124
= 48285.76 m².
The area of the square is 15376 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 496 cm.
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 15376 cm²
The length of the side is √15376 = 124
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 124
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 124 = 496.
Find the square of 125.
The square of 125 is 15625.
The square of 125 is multiplying 125 by 125.
So, the square = 125 × 125 = 15625.
