Squares, Cubes, and Roots: The Gateway to Exponents
Repeated multiplication – denoted by raising one number to the power of another – is among the most commonly encountered mathematical shorthand formats in daily life – from compound interest to growth rates, exponents, or indices, are here to stay!
Squares, cubes, square roots, and cube roots – these are the first forms in which we normally encounter exponentiation during an introduction to the topic – whether that is in an intermediate arithmetic class in school, or later on in life.
This book has everything you need to know about squares and cubes.
Squares and cubes are among the simplest and easiest-to-explain concepts in high school arithmetic.
They are also very useful, and appear in multiple technical and non-technical contexts. A square number – the result of multiplying a number by itself – finds use in engineering, business, recreational mathematics, and allied fields like psychology and economics, to name a few.
This book is a comprehensive refresher course in the concepts of squares, square roots, cubes, and cube roots. It contains thousands of exercise problems, to help you apply what you learn. It can be used by anyone who wants to brush up on these useful concepts, or by a child or adult trying to learn about squares and cubes for the first time.
At the end of the book, your numerical skills will be greatly enhanced; you will also be ideally positioned to dive into the larger world of exponents / indices, and to deal with the square and cube notation that permeates the world of algebra.
Go ahead – have a great time learning!
