The product of multiplying an integer by itself is the square of a number. Squares are used in programming, calculating areas, and more. In this topic, we will discuss the square of 408.
The square of a number is the product of the number with itself.
The square of 408 is 408 × 408.
The square of a number always ends in 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, or 9.
We write it in math as 408², where 408 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 408 is 408 × 408 = 166,464.
Square of 408 in exponential form: 408²
Square of 408 in arithmetic form: 408 × 408
The square of a number is found by multiplying the number by itself. 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 408.
Step 1: Identify the number. Here, the number is 408
Step 2: Multiplying the number by itself, we get, 408 × 408 = 166,464.
The square of 408 is 166,464.
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 408
So: 408² = 408 × 408 = 166,464
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 408.
Step 1: Enter the number in the calculator Enter 408 in the calculator.
Step 2: Multiply the number by itself using the multiplication button (×) That is 408 × 408
Step 3: Press the equal to button to find the answer
Here, the square of 408 is 166,464.
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 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 of the square is 166,464 cm².
The area of a square = a² So, the area of a square = 166,464 cm² So, the length = √166,464 = 408. The length of each side = 408 cm
The length of a square is 408 cm because the area is 166,464 cm², and the length is √166,464 = 408.
Sarah is planning to tile her square patio with tiles, each side of 408 feet. The cost to tile a square foot is 5 dollars. How much will it cost to tile the entire patio?
The length of the patio = 408 feet The cost to tile 1 square foot of patio = 5 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 = 408 Therefore, the area of the patio = 408² = 408 × 408 = 166,464. The cost to tile the patio = 166,464 × 5 = 832,320. The total cost = 832,320 dollars
To find the cost to tile the patio, we multiply the area of the patio by the cost to tile per square foot.
So, the total cost is 832,320 dollars.
Find the area of a circle whose radius is 408 meters.
The area of the circle = 522,402.24 m²
The area of a circle = πr²
Here, r = 408
Therefore, the area of the circle = π × 408² = 3.14 × 408 × 408 = 522,402.24 m².
The area of a square is 166,464 cm². Find the perimeter of the square.
The perimeter of the square is 1,632 cm
The area of the square = a²
Here, the area is 166,464 cm²
The length of the side is √166,464 = 408
Perimeter of the square = 4a
Here, a = 408
Therefore, the perimeter = 4 × 408 = 1,632.
Find the square of 409.
The square of 409 is 167,281
The square of 409 is multiplying 409 by 409.
So, the square = 409 × 409 = 167,281
