Definintion of Perfect square:

In algebra, a term is a perfect square when the numerical coefficient (the number in front of the variable) is a perfect square number, and the exponents of each of the variables are even numbers. The numbers have to be the same just like how 2 x 2 = 4. 3 x 3 = 9, and so on.

Perfect square examples are numbers like 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, ..Non perfect square examples are like 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42 ,43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56 , 57 ,58, 59, 60, ,61, 62, 63, 65, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75 ,76, 78, 79, 80, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 101,...
