Square Numbers and Cube Numbers
Powers are sometimes called indices, index notation or exponents. The first 12 square numbers are: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144. The first 5 cubes numbers are: 1, 8, 27, 64, 125. Square and cube numbers can be memorised or worked out. 2 squared means 2 x 2, and 2 cubed means 2 x 2 x 2. 5 squared would be 5 x 5 and 5 cubed would be 5 x 5 x 5.

Working interchangeably between indices and roots is important at higher GCSE. Advanced students will learn how to work with fractional as well as negative indices. You can find more worksheets on Indices, Index Notation and Standard Form.
