Today, we will learn about a specific pattern with square numbers, especially for numbers that end in 5. Can anyone tell me what 25 squared equals?

Student 1
Student 1

Isn't it 625?

Teacher
Teacher

Exactly! Now, do you know why that is the case?

Student 2
Student 2

Maybe there's a rule for it?

Teacher
Teacher

Yes! We can use the formula (10a + 5)². When we expand it, we see it always ends with 25. The rest involves a simple calculation of a(a + 1) hundred. Can someone provide a value for 'a'?

Student 3
Student 3

What if a = 2?

Teacher
Teacher

Great choice! So we calculate 2 × 3, which gives us 6. Therefore, 25 squared can be visually understood as 625.

Student 4
Student 4

Can we try another example?

Teacher
Teacher

Of course! How about 35 squared?

Student 1
Student 1

That should be 1225!

Teacher
Teacher

Correct! Let’s summarize: Whenever we calculate the square of numbers ending in 5, remember it will follow the a(a + 1) hundred + 25 pattern!

Let’s practice! Who is ready to find the square of 95?

Student 2
Student 2

I can try! a is 9, right?

Teacher
Teacher

Exactly! What’s a times a + 1?

Student 3
Student 3

That would be 9 × 10 = 90!

Teacher
Teacher

Good job! So according to our rule, what’s (10a + 5)²?

Student 4
Student 4

It equals 9025!

Teacher

Perfect! Now you see how quickly we can find squares without multiplying directly. Can anyone give me the square of another number ending in 5?

Student 1
Student 1

How about 105?

Teacher
Teacher

Yes! Apply our formula! Remember the last digits will always be 25, and now calculate the rest.

Student 2
Student 2

It's 11025!

Excellent work, everyone! Always remember this pattern for quick calculations.

Introduction & Overview

Read a summary of the section's main ideas. Choose from Basic, Medium, or Detailed.

Quick Overview

This section discusses various patterns found in square numbers and techniques for calculating them, particularly focusing on numbers ending in 5.

Standard

The section explores specific patterns associated with square numbers, especially for numbers that end in the digits 5. It examines how to compute the squares of such numbers using formulas and highlights the relationship between unit digits and perfect squares.

Detailed

Other Patterns in Squares

In this section, we delve into interesting patterns that emerge with square numbers, particularly concentrating on numbers that end in 5. The pattern we observe is that the square of any number that has 5 as its unit digit can be simplified using the expression:

Formula for Squares Ending in 5

For a number represented as a5:

  • To calculate (10a + 5)^2, we can expand this into:

(10a + 5)^2 = 100a^2 + 100a + 25 = 100a(a + 1) + 25

This reveals that the last two digits of any square ending in 5 will always be 25, while the preceding digits can be found by computing a(a + 1).

Pattern Illustration

  1. 25^2 = 625: Here, (2 * 3) hundreds + 25 gives 625.
  2. 35^2 = 1225: Similarly, (3 * 4) hundreds + 25 results in 1225.
  3. 75^2 = 5625: Following the same logic, we have (7 * 8) hundreds + 25.
  4. 125^2 = 15625: This continues with (12 * 13) hundreds + 25.

Conclusion

By utilizing this pattern, it's easy to compute the squares of numbers ending with 5 without extensive multiplication, showcasing an elegant relationship between square numbers and their properties.

Consider the following pattern:

25^2 = 625 = (2 × 3) hundreds + 25

Consider a number with unit digit 5, i.e., a5

35^2 = 1225 = (3 × 4) hundreds + 25

(a5)^2 = (10a + 5)^2

75^2 = 5625 = (7 × 8) hundreds + 25

125^2 = 15625 = (12 × 13) hundreds + 25

Now can you find the square of 95?
=100a(a + 1) + 25

= a(a + 1) hundred + 25

Detailed Explanation

This section discusses a pattern found in squares of numbers ending with the digit 5. When you square a number that ends in 5, the squared result always ends in 25. Moreover, the part before the 25 can be calculated using a specific pattern: for a number 'a5', where 'a' is the other digit in the number, the first part of the square can be determined by multiplying 'a' by 'a + 1'. For example, for 25, we have 2 * 3 = 6, and then we write 625. This logic extends to any number ending in 5, providing an easier way to find their squares without needing to perform full multiplication.

Examples & Analogies

Imagine you’re baking cupcakes and decide to bake them in batches of 5. If you notice that the number of batches you make follows a simple counting rule, like every number ending in a 5 resulting in a special pattern—625 for 25 batches or 1225 for 35 batches—this might help you remember how many cupcakes you’ve baked and make it easier to plan your baking day!

Finding Squares of Numbers with 5 in the Unit's Place

TRY THESE

Find the squares of the following numbers containing 5 in unit’s place.

(i) 15 (ii) 95 (iii) 105 (iv) 205

Detailed Explanation

Here, students are prompted to apply the pattern discussed earlier to find the squares of various numbers ending in 5. By following the outlined method, they should calculate the square of each number knowing they can multiply the preceding digit and the next higher number. For instance, for 15, the square is 225, found by calculating 1 * 2 = 2, and then appending '25'. This reinforces the importance of recognizing number patterns and applies their understanding practically.

Examples & Analogies

Using patterns can be likened to a chef who always follows specific recipes. Just as they know that a pinch of salt elevates a dish, recognizing that any number ending in 5 will have a predictable square can simplify calculating large scaled recipes in mathematics and everyday calculations.
