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 this topic, we will discuss the square of 1248.
The square of a number is the product of the number itself.
The square of 1248 is 1248 × 1248.
The square of a number always ends in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9.
We write it in math as 1248², where 1248 is the base and 2 is the exponent.
The square of a positive and a negative number is always positive. For example, 5² = 25; -5² = 25.
The square of 1248 is 1248 × 1248 = 1,558,784.
Square of 1248 in exponential form: 1248²
Square of 1248 in arithmetic form: 1248 × 1248
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 1248.
Step 1: Identify the number. Here, the number is 1248.
Step 2: Multiplying the number by itself, we get, 1248 × 1248 = 1,558,784.
The square of 1248 is 1,558,784.
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 1248
So: 1248² = 1248 × 1248 = 1,558,784
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 1248.
Step 1: Enter the number in the calculator. Enter 1248 in the calculator.
Step 2: Multiply the number by itself using the multiplication button (×). That is 1248 × 1248
Step 3: Press the equal to button to find the answer. Here, the square of 1248 is 1,558,784.
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.
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 1,558,784 cm².
The area of a square = a²
So, the area of a square = 1,558,784 cm²
So, the length = √1,558,784 = 1248.
The length of each side = 1248 cm
The length of a square is 1248 cm.
Because the area is 1,558,784 cm², the length is √1,558,784 = 1248.
Lisa wants to plant a square garden with a side length of 1248 feet. The cost to plant a foot is 5 dollars. How much will it cost to plant the full garden?
The length of the garden = 1248 feet
The cost to plant 1 square foot of garden = 5 dollars.
To find the total cost to plant, we find the area of the garden.
Area of the garden = area of the square = a²
Here a = 1248
Therefore, the area of the garden = 1248² = 1248 × 1248 = 1,558,784.
The cost to plant the garden = 1,558,784 × 5 = 7,793,920.
The total cost = 7,793,920 dollars
To find the cost to plant the garden, we multiply the area of the garden by the cost to plant per foot.
So, the total cost is 7,793,920 dollars.
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 1248 meters.
The area of the circle = 4,897,253.12 m²
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 1248
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 1248² = 3.14 × 1248 × 1248 = 4,897,253.12 m².
The area of the square is 1,558,784 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 4,992 cm
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 1,558,784 cm²
The length of the side is √1,558,784 = 1248
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 1248
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 1248 = 4,992.
Find the square of 1249.
The square of 1249 is 1,560,001
The square of 1249 is multiplying 1249 by 1249.
So, the square = 1249 × 1249 = 1,560,001
