Answer
Correct option: D.
$59^2$
D. $59^2$ Solution:
We know that, the unit's digit of the square of a natural number is the unit's digit of the square of the digit at unit's place of the given natural number.
$\therefore$ Unit's digit of $43^2 = 9$ $\big[\because3^2=9\big]$
Unit's digit of $67^2 = 9$ $\big[\because$ unit's digit of $7^2$ is 9$\big]$
Unit's digit of $52^2 = 4$ $\big[\because2^2=4\big]$
Unit's digit of $59^2 = 1$ $\big[\because$ unit's digit of $9^2$ is 1$\big]$
Clearly, the square of $59$ end with digit $1.$
