Are all square numbers also composite numbers explain?
Every square number (except 1) is composite. Prime numbers only have two factors, one and the numbers themselves. Since square numbers also have at least the square roots as factors, they have to be composite.
Is the square root of 29 a rational number?
NO!!! '29' is a Prime Number. The square roots of prime numbers are irrational sqrt(29) = 5.385164807.... NB Irrational numbers are those where the decimals go to infinity AND there is no regular order in the decimal digits.
Are all square roots rational numbers?
No, not all square roots are rational numbers. A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction where the numerator and denominator are integers and the denominator is not zero. Square roots that are perfect squares, such as √4 or √9, are rational numbers because they can be expressed as whole numbers. However, square roots of non-perfect squares, such as √2 or √3, are irrational numbers because they cannot be expressed as a simple fraction.
How many irrational numbers are there between 1 and 6?
There are an infinite number of irrational numbers between 1 and 6. There are all the square roots from 1 to 36 except for 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, and 36. There are all the cube roots between 1 and 216 except for 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216. You can calculate fourth roots, fifth roots and continue calculating roots all year long. You should only have your supercomputer calculate irrational roots. Otherwise, you will duplicate. When you have calculated all roots of all prime numbers that fall between one and six, and added in all physical constants, then you will know the answer.
What are rational numbers whose square roots are whole numbers called?
Rational numbers whose square roots are whole numbers are themselves whole numbers. They are called square numbers, e.g. 1, 4, 9, 16, 25 and so on.
