The product of multiplying an integer by itself is known as the square of a number. Squaring is used in programming, calculating areas, and more. In this topic, we will discuss the square of 1186.
The square of a number is the product of the number with itself. The square of 1186 is 1186 × 1186. The square of a number can end in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9. We write it in math as 1186², where 1186 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 1186 is 1186 × 1186 = 1,406,596.
Square of 1186 in exponential form: 1186²
Square of 1186 in arithmetic form: 1186 × 1186
The square of a number is found by multiplying the number by itself. Let’s learn how to find the square of a number using common methods.
In this method, we multiply the number by itself to find the square. The product here is the square of the number. Let’s find the square of 1186.
Step 1: Identify the number. Here, the number is 1186.
Step 2: Multiplying the number by itself, we get, 1186 × 1186 = 1,406,596.
The square of 1186 is 1,406,596.
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 1186.
So: 1186² = 1186 × 1186 = 1,406,596.
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 1186.
Step 1: Enter the number in the calculator Enter 1186 in the calculator.
Step 2: Multiply the number by itself using the multiplication button (×). That is 1186 × 1186.
Step 3: Press the equal button to find the answer.
Here, the square of 1186 is 1,406,596.
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 students when doing math, especially when finding the square of a number. Let’s learn some common mistakes to master the squaring of a number.
Find the length of a square where the area is 1,406,596 cm².
The area of a square = a²
So, the area of a square = 1,406,596 cm²
So, the length = √1,406,596 = 1186.
The length of each side = 1186 cm
The length of the square is 1186 cm. Since the area is 1,406,596 cm², the length is √1,406,596 = 1186.
Lisa is planning to tile her square patio of length 1186 feet. The cost to tile a foot is 4 dollars. How much will it cost to tile the entire patio?
The length of the patio = 1186 feet
The cost to tile 1 square foot = 4 dollars.
To find the total cost to tile, we find the area of the patio,
Area of the patio = area of the square = a²
Here a = 1186
Therefore, the area of the patio = 1186² = 1186 × 1186 = 1,406,596.
The cost to tile the patio = 1,406,596 × 4 = 5,626,384.
The total cost = 5,626,384 dollars
To find the cost to tile the patio, we multiply the area of the patio by the cost per foot. Thus, the total cost is 5,626,384 dollars.
Find the area of a circle with a radius of 1186 meters.
The area of the circle = 4,417,858.64 m²
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 1186
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 1186²
= 3.14 × 1186 × 1186
= 4,417,858.64 m².
The area of the square is 1,406,596 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 1,406,596 cm²
The length of the side is √1,406,596 = 1186
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 1186
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 1186 = 4744.
Find the square of 1187.
The square of 1187 is 1,409,769
The square of 1187 is found by multiplying 1187 by 1187. So, the square = 1187 × 1187 = 1,409,769
