Question 11 Mark
Write true (T) or false (F) for the following statements.
The square of a prime number is prime.
AnswerFalse.
Solution:
If $p$ is a prime number, its square is $p ^2$, which has at least three factors, $1, p$ and $p ^2$. Since it has more than two factors, it is not a prime number.

By just examining the units digits, can you tell which of the following cannot be whole squares?
- 1026
- 1028
- 1024
- 1022
- 1023
- 1027
AnswerIf the units digit of a number is 2, 3, 7 or 8, the number cannot be a whole square.
- 1026 has 6 as the units digit, so it is possibly a perfect square.
- 1028 has 8 as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
- 1024 has 4 as the units digit, so it is possibly a perfect square.
- 1022 has 2 as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
- 1023 has 3 as the units digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
- 1027 has 7 as the unit digit, so it cannot be a perfect square.
Hence, by examining the units digits, we can be certain that 1028, 1022, 1023 and 1027 cannot be whole squares.
