17. A fridge magnet has an area of 54 mm2. Is 54 a perfect square? Use prime factorization to find the answer.
54 is not a perfect square because the equation is not equal on both sides.

21. Kate is going to put a patio in her backyard. The patio stones she is using each have an area of 1 m2. She has created the rectangular design shown.
a) What is the area of the patio?
A=l x w
A=14 x 4
A=56m2
b) What are the dimensions of another rectangular patio she could build
with the same area?
56- 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56
-1 and 56
-2 and 28
-4 and 14
-7 and 8
c) Kate decides to make a patio with the same area but she wants it to be a square with whole number side lengths. Is this possible? Explain your reasoning.
No, it is not possible because 56 is not a square number, therefore it is not a perfect square.
