PERFECT SQUARE
• An integer that can be expressed as the square
of another integer.
• product of some integer with itself.

4 = 2 x 2
9 = 3 x 3

16 = 4 x 4
25 = 5 x 5

36 = 6 x 6
49 = 7 x 7

64 = 8 x 8
81 = 9 x 9

100 = 10 x 10
PERFECT SQUARE NUMBERS
FROM 1 TO 100
1 = 1x1 = 12

4 = 2x2 = 2 2

9 = 3x3 = 3 2

16 = 4x4 = 4 2

25 = 5x5 = 5 2
PERFECT SQUARE NUMBERS
FROM 1 TO 100
36 = 6x6 = 6 2

49 = 7x7 = 7 2

64 = 8x8 = 8 2

81 = 9x9 = 9 2

100 = 10 x 10 = 10 2
