Answers and reasoning. Review before teaching.

  1. 1. What is 13 squared (13²)?

    169

    13² means 13 × 13 = 169.

  2. 2. What is the positive square root of 4 (√4)?

    2

    Since 2 × 2 = 4, √4 = 2.

  3. 3. What is the positive square root of 169 (√169)?

    13

    Since 13 × 13 = 169, √169 = 13.

  4. 4. What is the positive square root of 25 (√25)?

    5

    Since 5 × 5 = 25, √25 = 5.

  5. 5. What is 15 squared (15²)?

    225

    15² means 15 × 15 = 225.

  6. 6. What is the positive square root of 225 (√225)?

    15

    Since 15 × 15 = 225, √225 = 15.

  7. 7. What is the positive square root of 361 (√361)?

    19

    Since 19 × 19 = 361, √361 = 19.

  8. 8. What is 17 squared (17²)?

    289

    17² means 17 × 17 = 289.

  9. 9. What is the positive square root of 121 (√121)?

    11

    Since 11 × 11 = 121, √121 = 11.

  10. 10. What is the positive square root of 196 (√196)?

    14

    Since 14 × 14 = 196, √196 = 14.

  11. 11. What is 10 squared (10²)?

    100

    10² means 10 × 10 = 100.

  12. 12. What is the positive square root of 289 (√289)?

    17

    Since 17 × 17 = 289, √289 = 17.
