Question

1. Using the prime factorisation method, find which of the following numbers are perfect
squares:
(i) 1176​

Answer 1

Answer:

Imperfect square

Step-by-step explanation:

$1176 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 7 \times 7 \times = {2}^{3} \times {7}^{2} \times {3}^{1}$

Here, neither 2, 7 or 3 has even power. so this is an imperfect square.
