Step-by-step explanation:
1024 is the least no. of four digits which is a perfect square of 32
___________________________________________
The least number of four digits which is a perfect square is
31 ² = 961
32 ² = 1024
33 ³ = 1089
34 ² = 1156
Least number of four digits = 1000.
The smallest four-digit number is 1000 but square root of 1000 gives the value 31.62 which 1000 is not a perfect square.
In order to obtain the smallest 4-digit perfect square, numbers higher than 1000 must be checked. The possibility is the square of 32 as the square of 31 will be less than 1000.
(32)2 is more than 1000 by 24.
So, the least number to be added to 1000 is 24.
1000 + 24 = 1024
Therefore, the smallest four digit number which is a perfect square is 1024.
