Before you understand this property, you are advice to read:
What are Natural Numbers ?
What are Square Numbers ?
Observe the following table:
Table 1
Natural Number | Square Number |
---|
1 | 1 | 2 | 4 | 3 | 9 | 4 | 16 | 5 | 25 | 6 | 36 | 7 | 49 | 8 | 64 | 9 | 81 | 11 | 121 | 12 | 144 | 13 | 169 | 14 | 196 | 15 | 225 | 16 | 256 | 17 | 289 | 18 | 324 | 19 | 361 | 20 | 400 |
Above table - 1 represents square of first 20 natural numbers.
You must have observed that the Natural Numbers having 5 at its one's place (highlighted in yellow) and their corresponding Square Numbers also have 5 at its one's place (highlighted in green).
i.e. Square of 5 = 25
Square of 15 = 225
Let's try few more square numbers as shown in table 2 and table 3:
Table : 2 | Table : 3 |
---|
Natural Number | Square Number |

41 | 1681 | 42 | 1764 | 43 | 1849 | 44 | 1936 | 45 | 2025 | 46 | 2116 | 47 | 2209 | 48 | 2304 | 49 | 2401 | 50 | 2500 | 51 | 2601 | 52 | 2704 | 53 | 2809 | 54 | 2916 | 55 | 3025 | 56 | 3136 | 57 | 3249 | 58 | 3364 | 59 | 3481 | 60 | 3600 |
| Natural Number | Square Number |
---|
71 | 5041 | 72 | 5184 | 73 | 5329 | 74 | 5476 | 75 | 5625 | 76 | 5776 | 77 | 5929 | 78 | 6084 | 79 | 6241 | 80 | 6400 | 81 | 6561 | 82 | 6724 | 83 | 6889 | 84 | 7056 | 85 | 7225 | 86 | 7396 | 87 | 7569 | 88 | 7744 | 89 | 7921 | 90 | 8100 |
|
Table - 2 represents squares of numbers from 41 to 60
Table - 3 represents squares of numbers from 71 to 90
In these tables also you will observe the same pattern which you observed in Table 1 i.e. Natural Numbers having 5 one's place (highlighted in yellow) and their corresponding Square Numbers also have 5 at its one's place (highlighted in green).
So, this explains this property of square numbers that:
If a Natural Number has 5 at its one's place, then the Square of such Natural Numbers must have 5 at its one's place also.
Also we get that:
If a Natural Number has 5 at its one's place, then the Natural Number is not always a Perfect Square.
e.g. 45, 75, 65 all are not square numbers
