Why are there only words used for the numbers 2 and 3 squared and cubed?

If you take the "square" of a number, it is like drawing a square with that number as a distance. When you "cube" a number, it is like taking that distance and drawing first a square, and then a vertical square above it; a cube. We do not have any words in English to describe 4- or 5-dimensional surfaces, so there is no special word to describe those power functions. The number 4^4 is described as "four to the fourth power". also to describe the expression of the algebraic equation.

How do you find the volumeof a sphere when you only have the diameter?
Volume of sphere is 1/6 times pi times diameter cubed Thuis Volume = 1/6 (3.14) times diameter cubed or 0.5236 Diameter cubed
Does the Pythagorean Theorem work on all triangles?
No, the pythagorean theorem only works on right triangles, but it will work on any right triangle. This is because the Pythagorean Theorem states that length of Leg A squared plus the length of Leg B Squared equals the length of the hypotenuse squared. A hypotenuse is always found opposite a right angle. Only right triangles have right angles; therefore, the Pythagorean Theorem only applies to right triangles. :D
What is the parabola?
A parabola is a type of graph that is not linear, and mostly curved. A parabola has the "x squared" sign in it's equation. A parabola is not only curved, but all the symmetrical. The symmetrical point, the middle of the parabola is called the vertex. You can graph this graph with the vertex, x-intercepts and a y-intercept. A parabola that has a positive x squared would be a smile parabola, and the one with the negative x squared would be a frown parabola. Also, there are the parabolas that are not up or down, but sideways Those parabolas have x=y squared, instead of y = x squared.
How do you find a area with the diameter of a circle?
Area = Pi(radius)squared. You only need the radius of a circle to find the area. To find the radius, when you have the diameter, divide the diameter by 2, because the diameter forms two radii. After you have found the radius, plug in the radius into the area equation: Area = Pi(radius)squared In other words, you can say the other equation for the area of a circle is: Area = Pi(1/2Diameter)squared
What are the even numbers upto 100 using only the numbers 1 3 5 and 7?

What is x cubed divided by x squared?
You can only get a specific number for an expression if you assign numbers to the variables. As an expression, the existing expression cannot be simplified.
What is x cubed divided by y squared?
You can only get a specific number for an expression if you assign numbers to the variables. As an expression, the existing expression cannot be simplified.
Is area cubed or squared?
Area is notated as Unit squared because you are only dealing with 2 dimension (Length and Width). Volume, however, is unit cubed because you are now involving height as a third dimension.
How is surface area labeled?
Surface area is squared. Only volume is cubed.
What are the ten squared numbers?
0.01 and 100 are the only ten squared numbers.
How many cm squared are in a centimeter cubed?
As a cm squared has no depth, there are 0 cm squared in a cm cubed. Alternatively, it can be considered that a 2 dimension thing has an infinite third dimension, so there are infinitely many cm squared in a cm cubed. To put it another way, the question as asked is nonsense. cm squared are a measure of area - a thing that has only two dimensions, NO THIRD dimension cm cubed are a measure of volume - a thing that has THREE dimensions.
What is it called when you multipy by four?
quadruple If you are talking about 2 squared and 2 cubed (with the little number abouve and to the right of the number you are multiplyiny) than those are the only ones with special names, squared and cubed.
What is the area of 150 meters cubed?
Area is two-dimensional. Therefore, based on the volume of 150 meters cubed, it can only be 150 meters squared.
How do you factor 3x cubed x squared minus 25?
well, i believe it goes like this (not certain) 25 is the only not prime number so... 3xcubed x squared -5 squared
What ARE the cubed numbers between 17000 and 18000?
17576 is the only one.
Is the surface area of a rectangular prism squared or cubed?
Squared. When you find surface area, you are only finding the area of the shapes that make up the three-denominational shape.
What could be the possible 'one's'digits of square root of 99856?
When you square a number, the final digit is the final digit of the 'one's' number squared. Since the only single digit numbers squared which ends in 6 are 4 and 6, the answer is either 4 or 6 (a calculator tells me it is 6) 0 squared is 0. All numbers ending in 0 when squared will end in 0. 1 squared is 1. All numbers ending in 1 when squared will also end in 1. 2 squared is 4. All numbers ending in 2 when squared will end in 4. 3 squared is 9. All numbers ending in 3 when squared will end in 9. 4 squared is 16. All numbers ending in 4 when squared will end in 6. 5 squared is 25. All numbers ending in 5 when squared will end in 5. 6 squared is 36. All numbers ending in 6 when squared will end in 6. 7 squared is 49. All numbers ending in 7 when squared will end in 9. 8 squared is 64. All numbers ending in 8 when squared will end in 4. 9 squared is 81. All numbers ending in 9 when squared will end in 1. So square numbers can only end with 0, 1, 4, 5, 6 or 9.
