Square of 41
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 41.
What is the Square of 41
The square of a number is the product of the number itself. The square of 41 is 41 × 41. The square of a number always ends in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9. We write it in math as 41², where 41 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 41 is 41 × 41 = 1681.
Square of 41 in exponential form: 41²
Square of 41 in arithmetic form: 41 × 41
How to Calculate the Value of Square of 41
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.
- By Multiplication Method
- Using a Formula
- Using a Calculator
By the Multiplication method
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 41
Step 1: Identify the number. Here, the number is 41
Step 2: Multiplying the number by itself, we get, 41 × 41 = 1681.
The square of 41 is 1681.
Using a Formula (a²)
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 41
So: 41² = 41 × 41 = 1681
By Using a Calculator
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 41.
Step 1: Enter the number in the calculator Enter 41 in the calculator.
Step 2: Multiply the number by itself using the multiplication button (×) That is 41 × 41
Step 3: Press the equal to button to find the answer Here, the square of 41 is 1681.
Tips and Tricks for the Square of 41
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.
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Calculating the Square of 41
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.
Mistake 1
Calculation errors:
Calculation errors mostly happen when students skip the steps or else by swapping the digits. To avoid it, students should double-check the answer. They can double-check by finding the square root of the solution they found.
For example, the square of 25 is 625, and the square root of 625 is ±25.
Solved Examples on Square of 41
Problem 1
Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 1681 cm².
The area of a square = a²
So, the area of a square = 1681 cm²
So, the length = √1681 = 41.
The length of each side = 41 cm
Explanation
The length of a square is 41 cm. Because the area is 1681 cm² the length is √1681 = 41.
Problem 2
Anna wants to add a border around her square garden, which is 41 feet on each side. The cost to add the border per foot is 5 dollars. What is the total cost to add the border around the entire garden?
The length of the garden = 41 feet
The cost to add the border per foot = 5 dollars.
To find the total cost to add the border, we find the perimeter of the garden,
Perimeter of the garden = 4a
Here a = 41
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 41 = 164 feet.
The cost to add the border = 164 × 5 = 820.
The total cost = 820 dollars
Explanation
To find the cost to add the border, we multiply the perimeter of the garden by the cost per foot. So, the total cost is 820 dollars.
Problem 3
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 41 meters.
The area of the circle = 5,281.72 m²
Explanation
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 41
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 41²
= 3.14 × 41 × 41
= 5,281.72 m².
Problem 4
The area of the square is 1681 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 164 cm.
Explanation
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 1681 cm²
The length of the side is √1681 = 41
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 41
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 41 = 164.
Problem 5
Find the square of 42.
The square of 42 is 1,764.
Explanation
The square of 42 is multiplying 42 by 42. So, the square = 42 × 42 = 1,764.
