\({(-1)}^2=1\)



Inputs

\(n^2~ =~ ?\)

Sample inputs

n: 10

n: 2.5

n: 20500

n: -49



Step by Step Solution to Find the Square of -1

Given:

n = -1

We have to find \({(-1)}^2\).

Finding Square...

The formula to find the square of a number n is:

\(n^2 = n\times n\)

Substitute

Substituting \(n=-1\) in the above formula
