10 is not a perfect square however 100 is. This is because a square is defined as numbers that are the product of another whole number when multiplied by itself. So, 10x10=100, making 100 a perfect square. However, no number multiplied by itself equals 10, meaning 10 is NOT a perfect square.

Answer:

No, 10 is not a perfect square.

Yes, 100 is a perfect square.

Explanation:

10 is not because in order for a number to be a perfect square, you have to see if the numbers that are multiplied to get it are the same.

100 is because 10 x 10 <---- exact same number being mutiplied.
