A perfect square is the number which is exactly equal to multiplication of 2 equal integers twice.

A perfect cube is the number which is exactly equal to multiplication of 2 equal integers thrice.

As 200 cannot exactly meet the above criteria, it is neither a perfect cube nor a perfect square.

200=14.1421*14.1421

As 14.1421 is not a integer 200 is not a perfect square.

200=5.84803*5.84803

As 5.84803 is not a integer 200 cannot be a perfect cube.
