If I ask you what is the square of 100, you’ll immediately
say 10000 without thinking. But if you are asked the
square of 101 or 102, you will probably struggle.

If you want to know a fun and easy way of doing this,

(that too mentally and very fast), refer to the next
slide. For those who can do it may also help themselves
with the concept if they wish so.

Chapter 1 – Squaring
Without wasting time, let us come to the topic.
This is a very simple method.
Following are the steps involved. (We are calculating the square of 101)
1. Identify the base (This is the round figure nearest to the number in
question. In our case, the base is 100 ).
2. Calculate the excess over the base (simply put, subtract the base from the
number in question) So the excess comes out to be 1(=101-100).
3. Now we have three values in consideration, the number (101), the base (100)
and the excess(1) .Now we need to write the answer somewhere. We will use
the upper right hand corner for writing the answers. The answer will have
two portions (right and left) which together combine to give us the complete
answer. To separate both the portions, we put a backslash between
them.
 102 / 01

4. At the right side of the backslash we write the square of the excess
5. At the left side of the backslash, we write the number(101) plus
excess(1) => (101+1) which is equal to 102
What we get now is our answer. 10201. Simple isn’t it?
You can try it for 102,103 and till 109. For figures other
than that, I will put another chapter presentation.
Introduction to chapter 2
What we have done till now is just a small display of the
power of vedic mathematics.

This chapter will further elaborate the same concept.

After reading this chapter, you should be able to

Square numbers near to any base (e.g. 10, 100, 1000
and so on)
 116 / 64

Let us take a different example

This time we take 108 as the number in question

Number – 108
Base – 100
Excess – 8

Solution:
Number plus excess(108+8) = 116
Square of excess(82) = 64
So you get your answer, i.e. 11664
 1016 / 064

Let us take a different base

This time we take 1008 as the number in question

Number – 1008
Base – 1000
Excess – 8

Solution:
Number plus excess(1008+8) = 1016
Square of excess(82) = 64
Did you notice that as soon as the no. of zeros increase in the
base value, the no. of digits at the right side also increase?
So you get your answer, i.e. 1016064.
 10036 / 0324

Let us take a higher value

This time we take 10018 as the number in question

Number – 10018
Base – 10000
Excess –1 8

Solution:
Number plus excess(10018+18) = 10036
Square of excess(182) = 0324
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side has gone
up to 4? This has happened due to choosing a higher base (which
contains four zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 100360324
I think you should be expert by now
How about a few exercises?
Find the squares of the following-
1. 106
2. 109
3. 1005
4. 10009
5. 1000003
6. 10007
7. 1002
8. 10025
Before going any further I strongly recommend you to solve
the questions given above (the guide to them is provided
in this presentation), so that you can grasp the further
concept in a better way.
 112 / 36

Squaring 106
This time we take 106 as the number in question

Number – 106
Base – 100
Excess –6

Solution:
Number plus excess(106+6) = 112
Square of excess(62) = 36
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 2? This
has happened because the base is 100 (which contains two zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 11236
 118 / 81

Squaring 109
This time we take 109 as the number in question

Number – 109
Base – 100
Excess –9

Solution:
Number plus excess(109+9) = 118
Square of excess(92) = 81
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 2? This
has happened because the base is 100 (which contains two zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 11881
 1010 / 025

Squaring 1005
This time we take 1005 as the number in question

Number – 1005
Base – 1000
Excess –5

Solution:
Number plus excess(1005+5) = 1010
Square of excess(52) = 25
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 3? This
has happened because the base is 1000 (which contains three zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 1010025
 10018 / 0081

Squaring 10009
This time we take 10009 as the number in question

Number – 10009
Base – 10000
Excess –9

Solution:
Number plus excess(10009+9) = 10018
Square of excess(92) = 81
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 4? This
has happened because the base is 10000 (which contains four zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 100180081
 1000006/ 000009

Squaring 1000003
This time we take 1000003 as the number in question

Number – 1000003
Base – 1000000
Excess –3

Solution:
Number plus excess(1000003+3) = 1000006
Square of excess(32) = 9
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 6? This
has happened because the base is 1000000 (which contains six zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 1000006000009
 10014 / 0049

Squaring 10007
This time we take 10007 as the number in question

Number – 10007
Base – 10000
Excess –7

Solution:
Number plus excess(10007+7) = 10014
Square of excess(72) = 49
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 4? This
has happened because the base is 10000 (which contains four zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 100140049
 1004 / 004

Squaring 1002
This time we take 1002 as the number in question

Number – 1002
Base – 1000
Excess –2

Solution:
Number plus excess(1002+2) = 1004
Square of excess(22) = 4
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 3? This
has happened because the base is 1000 (which contains three zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 1004004
 10050/ 0625

Squaring 10025
This time we take 10025 as the number in question

Number – 10025

Number plus excess(10025+25) = 10050
Square of excess(252) = 625
Did you notice that this time the no. of digits at the right side is 4? This
has happened because the base is 10000 (which contains four zeros).
So you get your answer, i.e. 100500625
Remember….
Our brain is a unique machine.

It has 2 parts, right and left.

In the left nothing seems right.

And in the right, nothing seems to be left.
