The

Mathematics Knowledge

What is the value of -8 squared?

As an ASVAB tutor, I review squares and square roots, and cubes and cube roots.  In my review of Mathematics Knowledge, I included 15 subtopics.  The subtopic of squares and cubes is one of the 15 subtopics in my book.  Knowing how to work with squares, square roots, cubes, and cube roots is important in working with polynomials, evaluating equations, and working with PEMDAS also known as order of operations.  Do not overlook reviewing squares and cubes to boost your score on the Mathematics Knowledge section of the ASVAB.
