Cube root it.

the square of a cubed number can be divided into 3 equal squares

(Ae3)e2 = Ae(3x2) or Ae6

this is also equal to (Ae2)E3

as long as a number can be expresses as a root number with an exponent equal to 6 the cube root of that number is a square of the root

Example: 64 can be divided into 8 x 8 or 4 x 4 x 4

64 is the square of 8 and the cube of 4

4 is the square of 2, 8 is the cube of 2

per the above formula:

(2e3)e2 = 2e6 = (2e2)e3

= 8e2 and 4e3

more simply:

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 64

8 x 8 = 64 (64 is a square)

4 x 4 x 4 = 64 (64 is also a cube)

2 x 2 = 4 (4 is a square)

What doeS Congruent mean in 4th grade math?

What are all the names for a parallelogram?

The ParallelogramOpposite sides are parallel and equal in length, and opposite angles are equal (angles "a" are the same, and angles "b" are the same)NOTE: Squares, Rectangles and Rhombuses are all Parallelograms!Example:A parallelogram with:all sides equal andangles "a" and "b" as right anglesis a square!


What different ways are there to divide a square in half?

You can divide the square from a point halfway between two of the corners to a similar point on the opposite side, to produce to rectangles. You can do this vertically or horizontally, but the result is the same. The second method is to divide the square from one corner to the corner directly opposite to it, in effect dividing the square into two triangles.


Is this true a rectangle is a square but a square isn't a rectangle?

Yes it is true. What they mean by that is that there are two kinds of squares. There's the shape square, □ Then there's the catigory of squares. All four sided shapes that don't have any rounded edges or spaces, are all kinds of squares like, rectangle, square, trapezoid, etc. Rectangles are a kind of square, but when you're talking about the shape square, then they're not the same.
