How can you tell if a number is a perfect square?

One way is to get the prime factorization of the number. If every prime occurs an even number of times, it is a square, otherwise, not. Another is to estimate the square root of the number, and square it. If you get more than the number, try a lower estimate; if less, a higher one. Using interval bisection you very quickly zero in on the square root, if it is a whole number. If so, the number is a perfect square. Otherwise, you find 2 consecutive whole numbers between which is the square root, in which case it is not a perfect square.


How can you tell the value of a radical is not a rational number?

It is not easy. If the value is rational then you must be able to express the value under the radical sign as p2/q2 where p and q are integers and q is non-zero. If not, then the number is irrational.It is not enough to require that for a rational, the number under the radical must be a perfect square since sqrt(2.25) is rational even though 2.25 is not a perfect square.


Is 8100 a perfect square why or why not?

Yes, 8100 = 90^2. As to if you want to know why. Maybe you just want to see how you can tell. A number a2b2 will equal (ab)2. So if any two perfect squares are multiplied together, the product is also a perfect square. With a = 9, and b = 10, then you have a2 = 81, and b2 = 100. And a2b2 = (ab)2 = 8100.

Can a prime number be a perfect cube?

Sure, honey, let me break it down for you. No, a prime number cannot be a perfect cube because a prime number is only divisible by 1 and itself. And let me tell you, a perfect cube is the result of multiplying a number by itself three times, so a prime number ain't gonna fit that bill. So, in short, a prime number and a perfect cube are like oil and water - they just don't mix, darling.
