Find the square of the following numbers containing 5 in unit’s place.

(i) 15 (ii) 95 (iii) 105 (iv) 205

Answer

(i)    (15)2 = 1 x (1 + 1) x 100 + 25
                = 1 x 2 x 100 + 25
                = 200 + 25 = 225
(ii)    (95)2 = 9 x (9 + 1) x 100 + 25
                = 9 x 10 x 100 + 25
                = 9000 + 25 = 9025
(iii)   (105)2 = 10 x (10 + 1) x 100 + 25
                = 10 x 11 x 100 + 25
                = 11000 + 25 = 11025
(iv)    (205)2 = 20 x (20 + 1) x 100 + 25
                = 20 x 21 x 100 + 25
                = 42000 + 25 = 42025
