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 241
Step 1: Identify the number. Here, the number is 241
Step 2: Multiplying the number by itself, we get, 241 × 241 = 58,081.
The square of 241 is 58,081.
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 241
So: 241² = 241 × 241 = 58,081
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 241.
Step 1: Enter the number in the calculator Enter 241 in the calculator.
Step 2: Multiply the number by itself using the multiplication button (×) That is 241 × 241
Step 3: Press the equal to button to find the answer
Here, the square of 241 is 58,081.
Tips and Tricks for the Square of 241

For example, the square of 25 is 625, and the square root of 625 is ±25.
Solved Examples on Square of 241
Problem 1
Find the length of the square, where the area of the square is 58,081 cm².
The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 58,081 cm² So, the length = √58,081 = 241. The length of each side = 241 cm
Explanation
The length of a square is 241 cm.
Because the area is 58,081 cm², the length is √58,081 = 241.
Problem 2
Sarah is planning to tile her square garden with sides of length 241 feet. The cost to tile a foot is 5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to tile the full garden?
The length of the garden = 241 feet The cost to tile 1 square foot of garden = 5 dollars. To find the total cost to tile, we find the area of the garden, Area of the garden = area of the square = a² Here a = 241 Therefore, the area of the garden = 241² = 241 × 241 = 58,081. The cost to tile the garden = 58,081 × 5 = 290,405. The total cost = 290,405 dollars
Explanation
To find the cost to tile the garden, we multiply the area of the garden by the cost to tile per foot.
So, the total cost is 290,405 dollars.
Problem 3
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 241 meters.
The area of the circle = 182,466.29 m²
Explanation
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 241
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 241² = 3.14 × 241 × 241 = 182,466.29 m².
Problem 4
The area of the square is 58,081 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 964 cm.
Explanation
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 58,081 cm²
The length of the side is √58,081 = 241
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 241
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 241 = 964.
Problem 5
Find the square of 242.
The square of 242 is 58,564.
Explanation
The square of 242 is multiplying 242 by 242.
So, the square = 242 × 242 = 58,564
