                                                                              Square and Square Roots 

Property 1: Cubes of all even numbers are even.
 
Example: 8 3 = 8 x 8 x 8 = 512

8 and 512 both are even numbers.

Property 2: Cubes of all odd  numbers are odd.

Example: 9 3 = 9 x 9 x 9 = 729

9 and 729 both are natural odd numbers.

Property 3: The sum of the cubes of first n natural numbers is equal to the  square of their sum.
1 3 + 2 3 + 3 3 + … + n 3 = (1 + 2 + 3 + … + n) 2

Example: 1 3 + 2 3 + 3 3 + 4 3 = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4) 3
1 + 8 + 27 + 64 = (10) 2
100 = 100 
     
Property 4:  The cubes of all numbers that end in 2 have 8 as the units digit. The cubes of all numbers that end in 3 have 7 as the units digit.

Property 5 : Cubes of the numbers ending in digit 1, 4, 5, 6 and 9 are the numbers ending in the same digit.

By using property 4 and 5  cube and their cube roots .
                           
            

        13  =  1   ( same number)
         23   =  8   ( 2+8 = 10 )
         33   =  27 ( 3+7 =10 )
         43   =  64  ( same number)
         53   = 125 ( same number)
         63   = 216 ( same number)
         73   = 343 (7+3 = 10)
         83  = 512 (8 + 2= 10)
         9 = 729 ( same number)
       103  = 1000( same number)

Some interesting patterns:

1. adding consecutive odd numbers:
                                                                         1  = 1 = 13
                                                                  3  + 5  = 8 =  23 
                                                           7 + 9 + 11 =27 = 33 
                                                 13 + 15+17+19 = 64 =43
 
 Cubes and their prime factors: 

    74088 = 2*2*2*3*3*3*7*7*7
                 =23 * 33 * 73
                = 2 * 3 * 7
               = 42

Find cube root of the number:

 Example 17576
a) group last three digits in one group.  17576
b) take last group numbers 576 , there take last units place. That is 6 , you know if units of  cube is 6 , cube root number also ends with 6
c)take 17 , which is below the 33  and more than 23 . Take less cube root number ,that is 2.
So cube root of 74088 is 26.

Example 804357

a)804 357 , 357 where 7 is the units place ,so units place of cube root is 3.
b)804 which is subtract 93(729)  = difference is 75, and 804 subtract from 103 (1000)  difference is 271 ,which is far from “0” . so we are taking 9 .
finally cube root of 804357 =933 . 
 
Prime factorization Of number
 Prime factorization of the cube number
4   = 2*2
43     = 64    =2*2*2*2*2*2
                   = 23 *23
6   = 2*3
63     = 216  = 2*2*2*3*3*3
                   = 23 *33
15 = 3*5
153 = 3375=3*3*3*5*5*5
                   = 33*53
12 = 2*2*3
123 = 1728 = 2*2*2*2*2*2*3*3*3
                    = 23*23*33
