1. What could be the possible ‘one’s’ digits of the square root of each of the following numbers?
i. 9801
ii. 99856
iii. 998001
iv. 657666025
Solution:
(i)One’s digit in the square root of 9801 is equal to 1 or 9.
[92=81 whose unit place is 1].
(ii) One’s digit in the square root of 99856 is equal to 6.
[62=36 and 42=16, both the squares have unit digit 6].
(iii) One’s digit in the square root of 998001 is equal to 1 or 9.
[92=81 whose unit place is 1].
(iv) One’s digit in the square root of 657666025 is equal to 5.
2. Without doing any calculation, find the numbers which are surely not perfect squares.
i. 153
ii. 257
iii. 408
iv. 441
Solution:
We know that natural numbers ending with the digits 0, 2, 3, 7 and 8 are not perfect square.
i. 153 is not perfect square because it ends with 3.
ii. 257 is not perfect square because it ends with 7
iii. 408 is not perfect square because it ends with 8
iv. 441 is perfect square because it ends with 1
3. Find the square roots of 100 and 169 by the method of repeated subtraction.
Solution:
According to question:
Square root of 100
100 – 1 = 99
99 – 3 = 96
96 – 5 = 91
91 – 7 = 84
84 – 9 = 75
75 – 11 = 64
64 – 13 = 51
51 – 15 = 36
36 – 17 = 19
19 – 19 = 0
Here, we have performed subtraction ten times.
Hence, √100 = 10
Now, square root of 169
169 – 1 = 168
168 – 3 = 165
165 – 5 = 160
160 – 7 = 153
153 – 9 = 144
144 – 11 = 133
133 – 13 = 120
120 – 15 = 105
105 – 17 = 88
88 – 19 = 69
69 – 21 = 48
48 – 23 = 25
25 – 25 = 0
Here, we have performed subtraction thirteen times.
Hence, √169 = 13

7. The students of Class VIII of a school donated Rs 2401 in all, for Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund. Each student donated as many rupees as the number of students in the class. Find the number of students in the class.
Solution:
Let us assume the number of students in the school be, x.
Each student donate Rs.x .
Total rupees contributed by all the students= x × x
=x2
Given, x2 = Rs.2401

x2 = 7×7×7×7
x2= (7×7)×(7×7)
x2= 49×49
x = √(49×49)
x = 49
Hence, the number of students = 49
8. 2025 plants are to be planted in a garden in such a way that each row contains as many plants as the number of rows. Find the number of rows and the number of plants in each row.
Solution:
Let us assume the number of rows be, x.
Total number of plants in each rows = x.
Total rupees contributed by all the students = x × x = x2
Given,
X2 = Rs.2025

x2 = 3×3×3×3×5×5
X2 = (3×3)×(3×3)×(5×5)
X2 = (3×3×5)×(3×3×5)
X2 = 45×45
x = √45×45
x = 45
Hence, The number of rows = 45
The number of plants in each rows = 45.
9. Find the smallest square number that is divisible by each of the numbers 4, 9 and 10.
Solution:

L.C.M of 4, 9 and 10 = (2×2×9×5) = 180.
180 = 2×2×9×5
= (2×2)×3×3×5
= (2×2)×(3×3)×5
Here, 5 cannot be paired.
we will multiply 180 by 5 to get perfect square.
Hence, the smallest square number divisible by 4, 9 and 10 = 180×5
= 900
10. Find the smallest square number that is divisible by each of the numbers 8, 15 and 20.
Solution:

L.C.M of 8, 15 and 20 = (2×2×5×2×3) = 120.
120 = 2×2×3×5×2
= (2×2)×3×5×2
Here, 3, 5 and 2 cannot be paired.
We will multiply 120 by (3×5×2) to get perfect square.
Hence, the smallest square number divisible by 8, 15 and 20 =120×30
= 3600
