  2. Square number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_number

    In other words, all odd square numbers have a remainder of 1 when divided by 8. Every odd perfect square is a centered octagonal number. The difference between any two odd perfect squares is a multiple of 8. The difference between 1 and any higher odd perfect square always is eight times a triangular number, while the difference between 9 and ...

    So, 6 is a perfect number because the proper divisors of 6 are 1, 2, and 3, and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. [ 2 ] [ 4 ] Euclid proved c. 300 BCE that every prime expressed as M p = 2 p − 1 has a corresponding perfect number M p × ( M p +1)/2 = 2 p − 1 × (2 p − 1) .

  4. Pythagorean triple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_triple

    When a triple of numbers a, b and c forms a primitive Pythagorean triple, then (c minus the even leg) and one-half of (c minus the odd leg) are both perfect squares; however this is not a sufficient condition, as the numbers {1, 8, 9} pass the perfect squares test but are not a Pythagorean triple since 1 2 + 8 2 ≠ 9 2.

  5. Perfect number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_number

    In number theory, a perfect number is a positive integer that is equal to the sum of its positive proper divisors, that is, divisors excluding the number itself. [1] For instance, 6 has proper divisors 1, 2 and 3, and 1 + 2 + 3 = 6, so 6 is a perfect number. The next perfect number is 28, since 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14 = 28.

    A most-perfect magic square of order n is a magic square containing the numbers 1 to n 2 with two additional properties: ... 116 40 133 42 100 25 119 11 102 9 135 26 ...

  8. Squared triangular number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squared_triangular_number

    A square whose side length is a triangular number can be partitioned into squares and half-squares whose areas add to cubes. From Gulley (2010).The n th coloured region shows n squares of dimension n by n (the rectangle is 1 evenly divided square), hence the area of the n th region is n times n × n.

  9. Square (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_(algebra)

    The square of an integer may also be called a square number or a perfect square. In algebra, the operation of squaring is often generalized to polynomials, other expressions, or values in systems of mathematical values other than the numbers. For instance, the square of the linear polynomial x + 1 is the quadratic polynomial (x + 1) 2 = x 2 ...
