This math topic focuses on identifying the nearest perfect square numbers that lie above and below a given number. The questions in this topic require recognizing patterns in perfect squares and computations to determine the nearest perfect square values. Students are expected to find the closest higher and lower perfect squares for numbers that are not perfect squares themselves. This skill is part of a more advanced study on squares and square roots, providing a deeper understanding of numerical relationships and mathematical reasoning.
