In this topic you are asked to look at a series of numbers from the Square numbers series and fill in the missing number.
Square numbers are a sequence of numbers that are the result of multiplying a number by itself. For example, 3 squared is written as 3² and is equal to 3 x 3 = 9. The first few square numbers are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, and so on.
To understand how these numbers work, imagine a square with sides of length 1. This square would have an area of 1 square unit. If you increase the side length to 2, the square would have an area of 2² or 4 square units. If you increase the side length to 3, the square would have an area of 3² or 9 square units.
In general, the nth square number is found by raising n to the second power. So the formula for the nth square number is: Sn = n².
Square numbers show up in many places in math and science, from calculating the area of a square to understanding the properties of certain types of shapes and patterns.
With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Square numbers" from 5th grade / Pattern / Missing term. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify the missing number in these square number patterns.
The game will reinforce the math you have chosen to learn by getting you to match the question to the correct answer.
