1. What could be the possible ‘one’s’ digits of the square root of each of the following numbers?

i. 9801

Solution:

The unit digit of \(9^2\) is also 1 (i.e., \(9^2 = 81\), whose unit place is 1).

∴ Unit’s digit of the square root of number 9801 is equal to 1 or 9.

ii.99856

Solution


If the unit digit of the given number is 6, then the unit digit of its square is also 6.

Likewise, the unit digit of \(4^2\) is also 6 (i.e., \(4^2 = 16\), whose unit digit is 6).

Hence, the unit digit of the square root of the number 99856 can be either 6 or 4.

iii. 998001

Solution

The unit digit of the squared number will be 1, if the unit digit of the given number is either 1 or 9.

i.e. \(1^2 = 1\) and \(9^2 = 81\), whose unit digit is 1.

Therefore, the unit digit of the square root of the number 998001 can be either 1 or 9.

iv. 657666025

Solution

The unit digit of the squared number will be 5, if and only if the unit digit of the given number is 5 (i.e., \(5^2 = 25\), whose unit digit is 5).

Hence, the unit digit of the square root of the number 657666025 should be 5.

2. Without doing any calculation, find the numbers which are surely not perfect squares.

i. 153

153⟹ Ends with 3.

Therefore, 153 is not a perfect square

ii. 257

257⟹ Ends with 7

Therefore, 257 is not a perfect square

iii. 408

Therefore, 441 is a perfect square.

3. Find the square roots of 100 and 169 by the method of repeated subtraction.

Solution:

100 – 1 = 99

99 – 3 = 96

96 – 5 = 91

91 – 7 = 84

84 – 9 = 75

75 – 11 = 64

64 – 13 = 51

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 the number of students in the school be x.

∴ Each student donates Rs x.

Total amount contributed by all the students\(= x×x=x^2 \)

Given, \(x^2 = Rs.2401\)

NCERT Solution For Class 8 Maths Chapter 6 Image 33

\(x^2 = 7×7×7×7\)

\(x^2 = (7×7)×(7×7)\)

\(x^2 = 49×49\)

\(x = \sqrt{(49×49)}\)

\( x = 49\)

∴ 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 the number of rows be x.

∴ the number of plants in each row = x.

Total plants to be planted in the garden \(= x × x = x^2\)

\(x^2 = 2025\)



\(x^2 = 3×3×3×3×5×5\)

\(x^2  = (3×3)×(3×3)×(5×5)\)

\(x^2  = (3×3×5)×(3×3×5)\)

\(x^2  = 45×45\)

\(x = \sqrt{45×45}\)

 \(x = 45\)

∴ The number of rows = 45, and the number of plants in each row = 45.

9. Find the smallest square number that is divisible by each of the numbers 4, 9 and 10.

Solution:


LCM of 4, 9 and 10 is (2×2×9×5) 180.

= (2×2)×3×3×5

= (2×2)×(3×3)×5

Here, 5 cannot be paired.

Therefore, we will multiply 180 by 5 to get the 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:



LCM of 8, 15 and 20 is (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) 30 to get the perfect square.

Hence, the smallest square number divisible by 8, 15 and 20 =120×30 = 3600
