SQUARES AND SQUARE ROOTS Perfect Squares – the product of a number times itself. Numbers that form perfect square have equal side lengths. Perfect Squares represent the number of squares needed to fill the inside of a square. The Square Root of a Number A number which is multiplied by itself to give the square number. It also represents the length of the side of a square. SOLVE – NO CALCULATOR !!!!! 1.
