A perfect square is a rational number that is equal to the square of another rational number; 9 is a perfect square because it is a rational number that is the square of 3, another rational number.

A polynomial that is the square of another polynomial is also a perfect square; x2 - 8x + 16 is a perfect square because it is the square of the polynomial x - 4.
