Let's solve the
"Squares and Square Roots" worksheet step by step.
---
🔍 Understanding the Task
You are given:
- A grid with numbers (some are perfect squares, some are square roots).
- At the bottom of the page, there is a strip with expressions like:
- $9^2$, $\sqrt{49}$, $6^2$, $\sqrt{16}$, etc.
- Your job:
Cut out these expressions and
glue them into the correct box next to their equivalent number.
So, for each number in the boxes (like 5, 7, 36, etc.), you need to find which expression from the bottom equals that number.

✔ Step-by-step Matching
We’ll go through each number in the boxes and match it to its equivalent expression from the bottom.

Left Column:
1.
5 → Look for something that equals 5
- Check: $\sqrt{25} = 5$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{25}$
2.
7 → What gives 7?
- $\sqrt{49} = 7$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{49}$
3.
36 → Is this a square?
- $6^2 = 36$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$6^2$
4.
8 → What gives 8?
- $\sqrt{64} = 8$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{64}$
5.
3 → What gives 3?
- $\sqrt{9} = 3$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{9}$

####
Middle Column:
1.
81 → What gives 81?
- $9^2 = 81$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$9^2$
2.
25 → What gives 25?
- $5^2 = 25$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$5^2$
3.
9 → What gives 9?
- $3^2 = 9$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$3^2$
4.
4 → What gives 4?
- $2^2 = 4$ → But wait — $2^2$ isn’t listed.
- $\sqrt{16} = 4$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{16}$
5.
11 → What gives 11?
- $\sqrt{121} = 11$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{121}$

- $\sqrt{100} = 10$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{100}$
2.
64 → What gives 64?
- $8^2 = 64$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$8^2$
3.
6 → What gives 6?
- $\sqrt{36} = 6$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{36}$
4.
49 → What gives 49?
- $7^2 = 49$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$7^2$
5.
12 → What gives 12?
- $\sqrt{144} = 12$ → Yes!
➤ Match:
$\sqrt{144}$

| 7 | $\sqrt{49}$ |
| 36 | $6^2$ |
| 8 | $\sqrt{64}$ |
| 3 | $\sqrt{9}$ |
| 81 | $9^2$ |
| 25 | $5^2$ |
| 9 | $3^2$ |
| 4 | $\sqrt{16}$ |
| 11 | $\sqrt{121}$ |
| 10 | $\sqrt{100}$ |
| 64 | $8^2$ |
| 6 | $\sqrt{36}$ |
| 49 | $7^2$ |
| 12 | $\sqrt{144}$ |

$\sqrt{49}$ → 7
-
$6^2$ → 36
-
$\sqrt{64}$ → 8
-
$\sqrt{9}$ → 3
-
$9^2$ → 81
-
$5^2$ → 25
-
$3^2$ → 9
-
$\sqrt{16}$ → 4
-
$\sqrt{121}$ → 11
-
$\sqrt{100}$ → 10
-
$8^2$ → 64
-
$\sqrt{36}$ → 6
-
$7^2$ → 49
-
$\sqrt{144}$ → 12
