'''<big><u>Finding square of a negative number</u></big>'''
 +
* As we have already learnt how to find a square of a natural number,suppose if there is any integer -2.
 +
* How do we find its square?
 +
* Do we have the square of negative integers also?
 +
* To answer all these questions let us recall the squaring of a natural number
 +
* consider 3^2,we can write 3^2 as 3x3 which is 9
 +
* similarly let us take any negative integer such as (-4)^2,
 +
* We can write this as (-4)*(-4), when we use the rules of multiplication of two negative integers the product becomes positive such that [- x - =+]then the square also becomes positive.
