Difference between 'Friends' & 'Lovers'

Friends

Friends and lovers
are the ones we give away
into the care of other lives
and other times

You've been my friend and lover
Friend to my warmest thought
Lover to my misdirection
I hold you dear

Some stumbling thoughts
meant for you
Written as well as I can
At least for now

So, stick them in a corner
Drag them out
from time to time
when you wonder where I am

I'll remember you
You'll remember me
Friends and lovers
Never far apart

You remind me of........

Friendship
You remind me of a flower,
Pretty, inside and outside.
A reason why people smile everyday,
A gift to all.

You remind me of chocolate,
Luscious and sweet.
Someone people can turn to in crisis,
Loved by all.

You remind me of a teddy,
Cute and huggable.
Someone people feel comfortable with,
Special to all.

You remind me of a balloon,
Happy and bouncy.
Someone people can have fun with,
Enjoyed by all.

You remind me of a lot of things,
But nothing can compare to the real person,
A friend I can look up to,
Cherished by me.

- Jenny Yu -

You are.......

Friendship
You are friendly, kind and caring
Sensitive, loyal and understanding
Humorous, fun, secure and true
Always there... yes that's you.

Special, accepting, exciting and wise
Truthful and helpful, with honest blue eyes
Confiding, forgiving, cheerful and bright
Yes that's you... not one bit of spite.

You're one of a kind, different from others
Generous, charming, but not one that smothers
Optimistic, thoughtful, happy and game
But not just another... in the long chain.

Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship won't tarnish or ever grow old
You'll always be there, I know that is true
I'll always be here... always for you.

Some of the favourite Sidhuism's

Kaanton mein reh ke bhi,
Phoolon ki tarah mehahna seekho,
Keechad mein reh ke bhi doston,
Kamal ki tarah khilna seekho,
Jo paristhitiyon se ghabra jaye,
Wo loh purush ho nahin sakta,
Rakh mein reh ke bhi,
Angaron ki tarah dehakna seekho
================
Is duniya mein sheron ko bhi azadi hai, sapon ko bhi azadi hai,
Sapon ko azadi hai har baste ghar mein basne ki,
Unke sir mein zehar bhi hai aur aadat bhi hai dasne ki
================
Jis ped pe phal lage hote hain, aadmi pathar marta hi usi ko hai,
No one kicks a dead dog
================
Andheron ka dard kya jane jo khud sitare hain,
Doobne ki tees kya jane jo khud kinare hain,
Aag ke darya mein doobne ka dard Ganguly se seekho,
Ganguly ne kayi ujde huye gulshan saware hain
================
Kabhi bhool se bhi kisi se na karna salook aisa,
Jo koi tumse karta tumhe na gawar hota
================
Har deen dukhi man mein umang tumhe bharni hai,

Are Mahabharat to Sir har yug ki atal zaroorat hai,
Ban ke Arjun, Sachai ki jang tumhe ladni hai
================
Duniya mein sabse bada rog "mere bare mein kya kahenge log?",
Insaan chadphadata hai, are yaar usne mere liye ye keh diya ,
Sari raat so nahin pata hai,
Main kehta hoon ki jo asli achiever banta hai,
Jo zindagi mein apne paon ki chaap chod ke jata hai,
Woh aadmi hai jo apne zehan ko jawabdeyi ho jata hai
=================
Har kyun ka jawab nahin hota,
Har chehra lajawab to nahin hota,
Are bhanware se ja ke poocho har phool pe baithta hai,
Are har phool gulab to nahin hota
=================
Bhagwan ki Kripa hai,
Laloo kare kawaliyan Rab sidhiyan pave
=================
Bulbulon ke pankhon mein bandhe huye kabhi baaz nahin rehte,
Buzdilon aur kayron ke haathon mein kabhi Raj nahin rehte,
Sar jhuka kar chalne ki aadat pad jaye jis insaan ko,
Us insaan ke sar pe kabhi Taj nahin rehte
=================
Jo bhara nahin hai bhavon se behti jisme rasdhar nahin,
Woh hridya nahin hai pathar hai jisme Swades ka pyar nahin
=================
As hopeless as a like a one-legged person at a bum kicking competition
=================
You are so unlucky that if you spend a night in a barrel of nipples,
You will still come out licking your thumb
=================
As helpless as a midget at a urinal
=================
Hum aaye nahin hain, Hame bulaya gaya hai,
Jo bina bulaye aate hain wo tsunamni ya tufaan hote hain,
Jo nyote par bulaye jate hain wahi asli mehmaan hote hain

Between Yesterday's REGRET and Tommorrow's HOPE,
Is Today's OPPORTUNITY

The Only Thing You Get In Life Without Trying is dandruff

Hope & Patience Always Win

Probably the greatest example of persistence is Abraham Lincoln. If you want to learn about somebody who didn't quit, look no further.
Born into poverty, Lincoln was faced with defeat throughout his life. He lost eight elections, twice failed in business and suffered a nervous breakdown.
He could have quit many times - but he didn't and he became one of the greatest presidents in America's history.

Failure means What ?

 Failure
 
Failure doesn't mean you are a failure……..
It does mean you haven't succeeded yet.
 
Failure doesn't mean you have accomplished nothing…..
It does mean you have learned something.
 
Failure doesn't mean you have been a fool………
It does mean you had a lot of faith.
 
Failure doesn't mean you have been disgraced…….
It does mean you are willing to try.
 
Failure doesn't mean you don't have it…….
It does mean you have to do something in a different way.
 
Failure doesn't mean you are inferior………
It does mean you are not perfect.
 
Failure doesn't mean you have wasted your time…..
It does mean you have a reason to start afresh.
 
Failure doesn't mean you should give up……..
It does mean you must try harder.
 
Failure doesn't mean you'll never make it…….
It does mean it will take a little longer.
 
Failure doesn't mean God has abandoned you……
It does mean God has a better idea.

Quotable Quotes

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return,
 
But what is more painful is to love someone
 
and never find the courage
 
to let that person know
 
how you feel.
 
**********
 
2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone
 
who means a lot to you,
 
only to find out in the end that it was
 
never meant to be and you just have to let go.
 
**********
 
3. The best kind of friend
 
is the kind you can sit on a porch
 
swing with, never say a word, and then walk
 
away feeling like it was the best conversation
 
you've ever had.
 
**********
 
4. It's true that we don't know what
 
we've got until we lose it, but
 
it's also true that we don't know what we've
 
been missing until it arrives.
 
**********
 
5. It takes only a minute
 
to get a crush on someone, an hour to
 
like someone, and a day to love someone-but it
 
takes a lifetime to forget that someone.
 
**********
 
6. Don't go for looks; they can deceive.
 
Don't go for wealth; even that fades away.
 
Go for someone who makes you smile because it
 
Takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
 
**********
 
7. Dream what you want to dream;
 
Go where you want to go;
 
Be what you want to be, because you have only
 
One life and one chance to do all the things you
 
Want to do.
 
**********
 
8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If
 
you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the
 
person too.
 
**********
 
9. A careless word may kindle strife;
 
A cruel word may wreck a life;
 
A timely word may level stress;
 
A loving word may heal and bless.
 
**********
 
10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have
 
The best of everything
 
They just make the most of everything
 
That comes along their way.
 
**********
 
11.When you were born, you were crying and everyone
 
around you was smiling.
 
Live your life so that when you die,
 
you're the one smiling and everyone around you is
 
crying.

¸they wilt away
*.¸¸.*♥´¨`♥*.¸
in just one day

Some friends are like a cloudy day

and when the sun's in sight
*.¸¸.*♥´¨`♥*.¸
it gets blocked by the grayest cloud
*.¸¸.*♥´¨`♥*.¸
and day turns into night

Be Like This(Hindi)

रहो जमीं पे, मगर आसमां का ख्वाब रखो,
तुम अपनी सोच को हर वक्त लाजवाब रखो.

खड़े न हो सको इतना न सर झुकाओ कभी,
तुम अपने हाथ में किरदार की किताब रखो.

उभर रहा जो सूरज, तो धूप निकलेगी
उजालों में रहो, मत धुंध का हिसाब रखो.

मिले तो ऐसे कि कोई न भूल पाये तुम्हें
महक वंफा की रखो और बेहिसाब रखो.

अक्लमंदों में रहो तो अक्लमंदों की तरह
और नादानों में रहना हो रहो नादान से.

वो जो कल था और अपना भी नहीं था दोस्तों
आज को लेकिन सजा लो एक नयी पहचान से.

Titanic song in Orkut mood

You're here, there's so much to fear,

May God bless you

May God make your year a happy one!

Not by shielding you from all sorrows and pain,
But by strengthening you to bear it, as it comes;

Not by making your path easy,
But by making you sturdy to travel any path;

Not by taking hardships from you,
But by taking fear from your heart;

Not by granting you unbroken sunshine,
But by keeping your face bright, even in the shadows;

Not by making your life always pleasant,
But by showing you when people and their causes need you most,
And by making you anxious to be there to help.

God's love, peace, hope and joy to you for the year ahead.

Never loose your Friend

Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it,
a year is gone.
 
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
 
And he rang mine if we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
 
"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
 
Around the corner! yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir" "Jim died today."
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.

Remember to always say what you mean.
If you love or like someone, tell them.
Don't be afraid to express yourself.
Reach out and tell someone what they mean to you.
 
 Because when you decide that it,
is the right time it might be too late.
Seize the day. Never have regrets.
 
And most importantly, stay
close to your friends and family,
for they have helped make you
the person that you are today.

Try to learn something from your Eyes

They blink together,
They move together,
They cry together,
They see things together
They sleep together
BUT THEY NEVER SEE EACH OTHER...

That's what friendship really is !!
 
If I called you and asked you to pick me up because something happened.... would you come?
If I had one day left to live my life... would you be part of my last day?

If I needed a shoulder to cry on.... would you give me yours?

you are special to me and you have made a difference i n my life.

I look up to you, respect you, and truly cherish you.

close you are, and send it to the person who sent it to you.

Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them, and tell new friends
you never will.

Remember, everyone needs a friend, someday you might feel like you have
NO FRIENDS at all, just remember this e-mail and take comfort in
knowing somebody out there cares about you and always will.


I'll Always Be There

In times of trouble,

In times of need,

If you are feeling SAD,

You can count on me.

I will give you a wink,

Until you smile,

give you a hug,

And stand by your side.

I'll be there for you till the end,

I'll always and forever, be your friend!

Don't hesitate in initiating a conversation


Both Friends will think the other is busy
And will not contact thinking it may be disturbing.

As time passes both will think let the other contact.
After that each will think why should I contact first?

Here UR love will be converted to HATE.
Finally without contact the memory becomes weak.

They forget each other.
One fine Day, they will meet and blame each another.

So Keep in touch with all your Friends.
And Pass this to all your Friends.

I don't want to be one of this Kind.
So here I am to say you
Hi
Take Care
Keep in Touch Always

Keep your tongue always under control

I've heard it said don't go to bed
while hanging on to sorrow,
you may not have the chance to laugh
with those you love tomorrow.

You may not mean the words you speak
when anger takes its toll,
you may regret your actions
once you've lost your self-control.

When you've lost your temper
and you've said some hurtful things,
think about the heartache
that your actions sometime bring.

You'll never get those moments back,
such precious time to waste,
and all because of things you said
in anger and in haste.

So if you're loving someone
and your pride has settled in,
you may not ever have the chance
to say to them again...

"I love you and I miss you
and although we don't agree,
I'll try to see your point of view,
please do the same for me."

Magic Tricks Using Maths

The world of magic on the face of it seems very distant from the logical precise, predictable world of mathematics.

Yet many of the greatest magic tricks ever seen rely heavily on maths to make them work. In this section we explore some of the best tricks so that you can amaze your friends.

Recurring Number Magic

Effect
You write down the following 8 digit number on a piece of paper:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 9

Then ask a friend to circle one of the digits. Say that they circle number 7.

You then ask your friend to multiply the 8 digit number by 63, and magically the result ends up being:

   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 9
x                     6 3
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7     

with the answer as a row of the chosen number 7.

The Secret
When your friend circles a number, you need to multiply the chosen number by 9 in your head - if 3 was chosen you would work out 3 x 9 = 27. Then you need to ask your friend to multiply the 8 digit number by the number you have just worked out. In the case of 3 being chosen you ask your friend to multiply 12345679 by 27 and you magically get the answer 333333333.

 

THE NAME OF THE CARD IS...

Effect
You secretly predict which card will be chosen. Then you ask a friend to randomly select a number and count down that many cards in the deck. At first this card doesn't match your prediction, but after a few comical adjustments, the name of the card mysteriously appears!

Things you need
A deck of playing cards
A calculator
Paper and pencil

Preparing the trick

Put the 10 of Hearts in the eighteenth position down from the top of the deck.

The Secret
Announce that you are going to predict which card will be chosen from the deck. On a piece of paper, write: THE NAME OF THE CARD IS Fold the paper so that your friend doesn't see what you've written and put it aside until later. Ask your friend to:
1. Enter a 3-digit number into the calculator. (The first digit must be larger than the last digit.)     Example: 845
2. Reverse this number and subtract it from the first number. -548 3.

Add the digits in the answer. 297 2+9+7=18 The digits will always add up to 18!
Tell him to count down that many cards in the deck. It will be the 10 of Hearts.
Finally, ask him to open the piece of paper and read your prediction.
He'll read, "THE NAME OF THE CARD IS".

Say that you were in such a hurry that you forgot to finish your prediction. Then make these adjustments and his card will mysteriously appear!
-cross off the H in THE
-cross off the AME in NAME
-cross off the T in THE
-cross off the CD in CARD
-change the I in IS to a T by crossing the top

leaving THE TEN OF HEARTS

 

The Mysterious Aces

Effect
Three aces will magically appear when the great Mathematical Forces are called.

Things you need
A deck of cards

Preparing the trick
Pick out the aces and any 8. Then count down seven cards and place the 8 with the four aces underneath it. (In other words, the 8 is the eighth card and the aces are 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th cards down.)

The Secret
Ask a friend for a number between 10 and 20. (Be careful 10 works but 20 does not!) Deal out that number of cards into a pile one at a time. Ask your friend to add the digits of that number. Return that many cards to the top of the deck one card at a time. Turn over the top card and it will be and it will be an ACE. (Very cool!!) Set this Ace aside and put the small pile back on top of the deck. Repeat the trick two more times and get two more aces. Finally, pretend to ask the Lords of Maths for a sign as to where the other ACE is. Pretend that they tell you to turn over the top card. (It will be an 8) Count down that many cards and there will be the final ACE!!! (A quick example...count out 15 cards one at a time... then put six back one at a time...and turn over the top card .... An Ace!!!)

Number Card Magic
Make 5 cards the same as these:

Card A 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 27 29 31
Card B 2 3 6 7 10 11 14 15 18 19 22 23 26 27 30 31
Card C 4 5 6 7 12 13 14 15 20 21 22 23 28 29 30 31
Card D 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
Card E 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31

Get your friend to choose any number from the cards without telling you the number, but to tell you all the cards it appears on. You should be able to quickly say what number was chosen. How?

Superfast Addition
Get a friend to write down 2 numbers less than 20, one under the other without you seeing them. then your friend makes a third number by adding the first 2 together and write it below the first two. Then make a fourth number by adding the second and third, a fifth by adding the third and fourth, and so on, until there is a column of ten numbers. Now if you look at the numbers you can quickly give the total of the column. .

All you do is multiply the seventh number by 11, in the example below it is 142 x11.

Example 14+9+23+32+55+87+142+229+371+600 =1562

You can multiply by any number by 11 very quickly in your head - How? The secret is to multiply the number by 10 first and then add the number to the first result. For the example above - 10 x 142 = 1420 (the really easy bit - just add 0 to the end), then add 142 to 1420 which gives us the answer 1562 (even that bit's not too difficult either!). More hints on approximation are found here.

Maths Tricks

Multiply any two numbers from 11 to 20 in your head.

Take 15 x 13 for example..

Place the larger no. first in your mind and then do something like this Take the larger no on the top and the second digit of the smaller no. in the bottom.

15

3

The rest is quite simple. Add 15+3 = 18 . Then multiply 18 x 10 = 180 ...

Now multiply the second digit of both the no.s (ie; 5 x 3 = 15) Now add 180 + 15

Here is the answer 180 + 15 = 195 .

Think over it. This is a simple trick. It will help you a lot.

 

Multiply any number from 1 to 10 by 9

To multiply by 9,try this:
(1) Spread your two hands out and place them on a desk or table in front of you.
(2) To multiply by 3, fold down the 3rd finger from the left. To multiply by 4, it would be the 4th finger and so on.
(3) the answer is 27 ... READ it from the two fingers on the left of the folded down finger and the 7 fingers on the right of it.

This one was really cool wasn't it

 

Multiply any two digit number with 11.

This trick is much simpler than the previous one and it is more useful too. Let the number be 27 . Therefore 27 x 11

Divide the number as 2 _ 7

Add 2+ 7 = 9

Thus the answer is 2 9 7

Wasn't this one simple. But there is one complication. If you take a number like 57 Thus _57 x 11

Divide the number as 5 _ 7

Add 5 + 7 = 12

Now add 1 to 5 and place 2 in the middle so the answer is 5+1_2 _7 = _627

Thus the answer is 627

 

Multiply any number by 11 .

Trick number 2 tells you how to multiply a two digit number by 11 but what if you have a number like 12345678 . Well that is very easy if you our trick as given below . Read it carefully.

Let the number be 12345678 __ thus 12345678 x 11

Write down the number as 012345678 ( Add a 0 in the beginning)

Now starting from the units digit write down the numbers after adding the number to the right

So the answer will be 135802458

This one is simple if you think over it properly all you got to do is to add the number on the right . If you are getting a carry over then add that to the number on the left. So I will tell you how I got the answer . Read carefully.

The number was 12345678 ___ I put a 0 before the number ____ so the new number 012345678

Now I wrote ___ 012345678

Then for the answer

8 + 0 = 8

7 + 8 = 15 (1 gets carry carried over)

6+1+7 = 14 ( 1 gets carried over)

5 + 1 + 6 = 12 ( 1 gets carried over)

4 + 1 + 5 = 10 ( 1 gets carried over)

3 + 1 + 4 = 8

2 + 3 = 5

1 + 2 = 3

0 + 1 = 1

Thus the answer = 135802458

Square any two digit number

Suppose the number is 47 . Look for the nearest multiple of 10 . ie; in this case 50 . We will reach 50 if we add 3 to 47. So multiply (47+3) x (47-3) = 50 x 44 = 2200 This is the 1st interim answer.

We had added 3 to reach the nearest multiple of 10 that is 50 thus 3x 3 = 9 This is the second interim answer.

The final answer is 2200 + 9 = 2209 ... Practice This one on paper first.

 

Square a 2 Digit Number, for this example 37:

Look for the nearest 10 boundary
In this case up 3 from 37 to 40.
Since you went UP 3 to 40 go DOWN 3 from 37 to 34.
Now mentally multiply 34x40
The way I do it is 34x10=340;
Double it mentally to 680
Double it again mentally to 1360
This 1360 is the FIRST interim answer.
37 is "3" away from the 10 boundary 40.
Square this "3" distance from 10 boundary.
3x3=9 which is the SECOND interim answer.
Add the two interim answers to get the final answer.
Answer: 1360 + 9 = 1369

With practice this can easily be done in your head.

 

Squaring numbers in the hundreds.

If the number to be squared is 106:
Square the last two digits (no carry): 6 x 6 = 36: _ _ _ 3 6
Add the last two digits (06) to the number: 106 + 6 = 112: 1 1 2 _ _
So 106 x 106 = 11236.
See the pattern?

If the number to be squared is 112:
Square the last two digits (keep carry 1): 12 x 12 = 144: _ _ _ 4 4
Add the last two digits (12) plus the carry (1) to the number:
112 + 12 + 1 = 125: 1 2 5 _ _
So 112 x 112 = 12544.

 

Squaring a number in the three hundreds

Choose a number in the 300s (practice with numbers under 310, then progress to larger ones).
Square the first digit = : 9 _ _ _ _
The next two digits will be 6 times the last 2 digits: _ X X _ _
The last two places will be the square of the last digit: _ _ _ X X
Example:
If the number to be squared is 309:
The first digit is 9: 9 _ _ _ _
The next two digits are 6 times the last digit:
6 x 9 = 54: _ 5 4 _ _
Square the last digit: 9 x 9 = 81: _ _ _ 8 1
So 309 x 309 = 95481.

For larger numbers reverse the steps:

Square the last two digits (keep the carry): _ _ _ X X
6 times the last two digits + carry: _ X X _ _
Square the first digit + carry: X _ _ _ _

See the pattern?


If the number to be squared is 325:
Square last two digits (keep carry):
25x25 = 625 (keep 6): _ _ _ 2 5
6 times the last two digits + carry:
6x25 = 150; 150+6 = 156 (keep 1): _ 5 6 _ _
Square the first digit + carry:
3x3 = 9; 9+1 = 10: 1 0 _ _ _ _
So 325 x 325 = 105625.

 

Squaring numbers in the five hundreds

Choose a number in the 500s (start with low numbers at first; then graduate to larger ones).
The first two digits of the square are 25: 2 5 _ _ _ _
The next two digits will be 10 times the last 2 digits: _ _ X X _ _
The last two places will be the square of the last two digits: _ _ _ _ X X
Example:
If the number to be squared is 508:
The first two digits are 25: 2 5 _ _ _ _
The next two digits are 10 times the last 2 digits:
10 x 8 = 80: _ _ 8 0 _ _
Square the last digit: 8 x 8 = 64: _ _ _ 6 4
So 508 x 508 = 258,064.

For larger numbers reverse the steps:

Square the last two digits (keep the carry): _ _ _ _ X X
10 times the last two digits + carry: _ _ X X _ _
25 + carry: X X _ _ _ _

See the pattern?


If the number to be squared is 525:
Square the last two digits (keep the carry):
25 x 25 = 625 (keep 6): _ _ _ _ 2 5
10 times the last two digits + carry:
10 x 25 = 250; 250 + 6 = 256 (keep 2): _ _ 5 6 _ _
25 + carry: 25 + 2 - 27: 2 7 _ _ _ _
So 425 x 425 = 275,625.

 

Square a two digit number ending in five

This one is as easy as the previous ones but you have to pay a little more attention to this one . Read carefully :

Let the number be 35

35 x 35

Multiply the last digits of both the numbers ; thus ___ 5 x 5 = 25

now add 1 to 3 thus 3 + 1 = 4

multiply 4 x 3 = 12

thus answer 1225

You will have to think over this one carefully.As 5 has to come in the end so the last two digits o the answer will be 25 . Add 1 to the first digit and multiply it by the original first digit . Now this answer forms the digits before the 25. Thus we get an answer .

 

Squaring a number in the two hundreds.

Choose a number in the 200s (practice with numbers under 210, then progress to larger ones).
Square the first digit = 4: __4 _ _ _ _
The next two digits will be 4 times the last 2 digits: _ X X _ _
The last two places will be the square of the last digit: _ _ _ X X


Example:
If the number to be squared is 206:
The first digit is 4: 4 _ _ _ _
The next two digits are 4 times the last two digits :
4 x 6 = 24: _ 2 4 _ _
Square the last digit: 6 x 6 = 36: _ _ _ 3 6
So 206 x 206 = 42436.

For larger numbers work right to left:

Square the last two digits (keep the carry): _ _ _ X X
4 times the last two digits + carry: _ X X _ _
Square the first digit + carry: X _ _ _ _

See the pattern?

If the number to be squared is 225:
Square last two digits (keep carry):
25x25 = 625 (keep 6): _ _ _ 2 5
4 times the last two digits + carry:
4x25 = 100; 100+6 = 106 (keep 1): _ 0 6 _ _
Square the first digit + carry:
2x2 = 4; 4+1 = 5: 5 _ _ _ _
So 225 x 225 = 50625.

 

Squaring numbers in the four hundreds

Choose a number in the 400s (keep the numbers low at first; then progress to larger ones).
The first two digits of the square are 16: 1 6 _ _ _ _
The next two digits will be 8 times the last 2 digits: _ _ X X _ _
The last two places will be the square of the last two digits: _ _ _ _ X X
Example:
If the number to be squared is 407:
The first two digits are 16: 1 6 _ _ _ _
The next two digits are 8 times the last 2 digits:
8 x 7 = 56: _ _ 5 6 _ _
Square the last digit: 7 x 7 = 49: _ _ _ 4 9
So 407 x 407 = 165,649.

For larger numbers reverse the steps:

Square the last two digits (keep the carry): _ _ _ _ X X
8 times the last two digits + carry: _ _ X X _ _
16 + carry: X X _ _ _ _

See the pattern?


If the number to be squared is 425:
Square the last two digits (keep the carry):
25 x 25 = 625 (keep 6): _ _ _ _ 2 5
8 times the last two digits + carry:
8 x 25 = 200; 200 + 6 = 206 (keep 2): _ _ 0 6 _ _
16 + carry: 16 + 2 = 18: 1 8 _ _ _ _
So 425 x 425 = 180,625.

 

Finding 5 percent of any number

Trick 1 : Finding 5 percent of any number
Choose a large number (or sum of money).
Move the decimal point one place to the left.
Divide by 2 (take half of it).

Example:
If the amount of money selected is Rs. 850:
Move the decimal point one place to the left.: 85
Divide by 2: 85/2 = 42.50
So 5% of Rs.850 = Rs.42.50.
See the pattern?

If the amount of money selected is Rs. 4500:
Move the decimal point one place to the left.: 450
Divide by 2: 450/2 = 225
So 5% of Rs.4500 = Rs. 225
