      Math teacher here. FIrst off this is a useless skill since it only works with perfect squares. The problem with math students is not that they can do things in a different way. The problem is that learning math isn't about right answers, it's about learning how numbers and concepts inter-relate. Yeah, you gotta show your work, there is no way to verify thinking without seeing or hearing it. I can't hear you think if you aren't explaining to me. I've got to see it on paper. Answers are completely useless in this regard.

      @@hastypete2 I get that, but
      1. If it's not multiple choice and I get the correct answer, I shouldnt waste time showing work, especially if it's a timed test.
      2. If I am showing work and skip a step because it was too simple and I did it in my head, shouldnt get points deducted or the answer wrong.

I am able to do several steps in my head, so I can focus more on finding the solution to the problem. I've found that taking extra time and writing every step is unnecessary, and often results in me making a tiny mistake that costs me the entire problem.

    @PorkFrydRice 4 роки тому +40

    This is a perfect example of a math trick versus math knowledge. What I like about this is that it generates interest in square roots! I think this could be push farther by thinking about extention questions like "What if we did not have a perfect square? What would happen?" We can see that if our number ended in a digit other than 1,4,5,6, or 9 then we would not have a perfect square. This is because when we multiply multi-digit numbers we start in the ones place which for perfect squares has to be the same number. This is also why we only need to know the squares for 1-9.

      Gave up on that one. This was easy, how-to-check-if-number-is-perfect-square was not easy at all.
      It's easy to rule out a lot of numbers by knowing that:
      A perfect square always ends on 1, 4 or 9 and has an equal ten. Or it ends on 6 and has an odd ten. Or it ends on 25.
      Also no number can be a perfect square unless its digital root is 1, 4, 7, or 9.
      Still 925 is not a perfect square but we wont know without a calculator or more complex testing.
      To be sure if you have a perfect square add these rules:
      If a number is divisible by 4, its square leaves a remainder 0 when divided by 8.
      Square of even number not divisible by 4 leaves remainder 4 while square of an odd number always leaves remainder 1 when divided by 8.
      Total numbers of prime factors of a perfect square are always odd.

However, I don't know if this goes the same for you since you're a stranger on the internet...anways good luck on your exam.

    A quick way of finding the two matching digits in the squares of 1-9 is to only check the squares of 1-5. The other "matching" number will always be the one that when added to the first matching number, will add to 10. Example: if I had the number 1746, I would know that my last digit could be either 4 (4x4 = 1 *6* ), or 6 (6 + *4* = 10)

I gave up.
    But now...with youtube and Google...i realized math is incredibly beautiful and filled with patterns and proofs. I now understand WHY the hypotenuse is equal to the squares of the two sides. Thanks to you I understand how to find the square root in a way that makes sense. All the pieces are finally coming together. I am obsessed with mathematics now...and patterns.

    [bottom line]
    The way to stop procrastinating is to prove to myself that you can overcome something this easy and small (or at least, that is how I personally do it)
    Lastly, I'd just like to say that we are all capable of overcoming, if not more then less, ourselves in our everyday lives. I BELIEVE THAT EVERYONE CAN!!!

    Thank you speaking from someone who had to learn while attending a new school every 6 month to a year. Imagine leaving pre-cal for geometry. Then back to pre-cal. And none of those teachers cared I showed up to even ask hey brother. Are we teaching these things differently. Umm yes you are but hey all good I’ll catch up now thanks to this wonderful chap !!!
