How to find square of any number in seconds with just mental calculation?

There are many ways with which we can find out square of a number within seconds. Let’s see how we can find out square of a number faster using Vedic Mathematics (Nikhilam method)

Example 1: Find out the square of 12

Step 1
We need to take the nearest power of 10. So here 10 is the nearest power of 10 which we can take as our base. The deviation to the base = 12-10 = 2
(To find out the deviation, just remove the left most digit "1" and you will get it quickly)
​Now the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) will be the sum of the number and deviation. Hence the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) = 12 + 2 = 14
Step 2
Our base is 10 which has a single zero. This means that our Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) will have a single digit and that can be obtained by taking 
the square of the deviation.
Hence the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) = 2² = 4
Hence the answer  = 144

Example 2: Find out the square of 13
Step 1
We need to take the nearest power of 10. So here 10 is the nearest power of 10 which we can take as our base.  The deviation to the base = 13-10 = 3
(To find out the deviation, just remove the left most digit "1" and you will get it quickly)
​Now the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) will be the sum of the number and deviation.Hence the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) = 13 + 3= 16
Step 2
Our base is 10 which has a single zero. This means that our Right Hand Side of 
the answer (RHS) will have a single digit and that can be obtained by taking the square of the deviation.
Hence the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) = 3² = 9
Hence the answer  = 169

Example 3: Find out the square of 14

Step 1
10 is the nearest power of 10 which we can take as our base.  The deviation to the base = 14-10 = 4
(To find out the deviation, just remove the left most digit "1" and you will get it quickly)

​Now the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) will be the sum of the number and deviation. Hence the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) = 14 + 4 = 18
Step 2
Our base is 10 which has a single zero. This means that our Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) will have a single digit and that can be obtained by taking the square of the deviation.
Hence the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) = 4² = 16. However please note that the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) can have only a single digit because our base 10 has a only single zero. Hence, from the obtained number 16, we will take R.H.S as 6 and 1 is taken as a carry which we will add to our LHS. Hence LHS becomes 18+1 = 19
Hence the answer = 196


Example 4: Find out the square of 106

Step 1
Here 100 is the nearest power of 10 which we can take as our base.  The deviation to the base = 106-100 = 6
(To find out the deviation, just remove the left most digit "1" and you will get it quickly)
​Now the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) will be the sum of the number and deviation. Hence the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) = 106 + 6 = 112
Step 2
Our base is 100 which has two zeros. This means that our Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) will have two digits and that can be obtained by taking the square of the deviation.
Hence the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) = 6² = 36.
Hence the answer = 11236


Example 5: Find out the square of 112

Step 1
Here 100 is the nearest power of 10 which we can take as our base.  The deviation to the base = 112-100 = 12
(To find out the deviation, just remove the left most digit "1" and you will get it quickly)
Now the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) will be the sum of the number and deviation. Hence the Left Hand Side of the answer (LHS) = 112 + 12 = 124
Step 2
Our base is 100 which has two zeros. This means that our Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) will have two digits and that can be obtained by taking the square of the deviation. Hence the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) = 12² = 144. However please note that the Right Hand Side of the answer (RHS) can have only two digits because our base 100 has only two zeros. Hence, from the obtained number 144, we will take R.H.S as 44 and 1 is taken as a carry which we will add to our LHS. Hence LHS becomes 124+1 = 125
Hence the answer = 12544
