Exponents

Unit Cubed and Squared

Perfect Square

A number that is the square of the whole number, for example; 16 is a perfect square of 16 = 4 (exponent 2)

Square Root

A number which when multiplied by itself, results in a given number, for example; 5 is a square root of 25.

Square Numbers

The product of a number multiplied by itself; for example, 25 is a square number of 5.

An exponent is a number, shown in a smaller size and raised that tells us how many times the number before (base) it is used as a factor; for example, 2 is the exponent in 6 (exponent) 2.

Usually called an exponent or index

Written as a smaller number

Standard Form

Written down in a usual way. (E.g. 876)

Factor Form

An integer that divided=s into another number exactly is called a factor. (E.g. 2 (exponent) 4 = 8

Repeated Multiplication

Power

The amount of times you multiply the base

Product

The result of when two or three or more numbers are multiplied.

Square

A rectangle with four equal sides.

Perfect Cube

A number that is the cube of a whole number, for example; 64 = 4 (exponent 3).

Cube Numbers

A power with exponent 3; for example, 8 is a cube number of 8 = 2 (exponent 3).

Mathematical Operation

If the exponent is 3 then it's no longer "squared" it is considered as "cubed" or cubic units

Exponential Form

Exponential form is a numeric form involving exponents. (E.g 5 ~ exponent 4 = 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 625)

Expanded Form

Expanded form is a way of showing the mathematical calculation of each individual number to be aware of the value of said number.

Base

The base number tells you what number is being multiplied

The number that is bigger is the base

Often used as a factor
