[Link] the correct
[Link] of the following is false to find square of a number?
[Link](a,2)
[Link] type of value is returned by [Link]( )?
Double
[Link] of the following syntax is true to find the square root of a number?
[Link](a)
[Link] the class that is used for different Mathematical functions.
[Link]
[Link] the output of the [Link](x); when x = -9.99
9.99
[Link] the output of [Link](x); when x = 9.0
3.0
[Link] the output
[Link]([Link](10.24));
Output
3.2
Explanation
[Link] method gives the square root of a positive number. Square root of 10.24 is
3.2 so it is the output.
[Link]([Link](-99.4));
Output
-99.0
Explanation
[Link] method rounds off its argument to the nearest mathematical integer and
returns its value as a double type. The nearest integer to -99.4 is -99.0 so that is the
output. [Link] method behaves in a particular way at the mid-point i.e. when the
decimal part of the argument is 0.5. In such cases, the result is the integer value that is
even. Let's understand this with an example. [Link](1.5) and [Link](2.5) will
both return 2.0. In the case of 1.5, both 1.0 and 2.0 are equally close to 1.5. [Link]
choses the integer that is even so 2.0 is returned. In the case of 2.5, both 2.0 and 3.0 are
equally close to 2.5. [Link] again choses the integer that is even so 2.0 is returned.
[Link]([Link](42.875));
Output
3.5
Explanation
[Link] method returns the cube root of its argument as a double value. Cube root of
42.875 is 3.5 so it is the output.
[Link]([Link](-25.5, -12.5));
Output
-25.5
Explanation
[Link] method returns the smaller of its 2 arguments. As -25.5 is smaller than -12.5
so it is the output.
[Link]([Link](-0.95));
Output
-0.0
Explanation
[Link] method returns the smallest double value that is greater than or equal to the
argument and is equal to a mathematical integer. If the argument value is less than zero
but greater than -1.0, then the result is negative zero which is the case in this .
[Link]([Link](-18.51));
Output -19
Explanation
[Link] method rounds off its argument to the nearest mathematical integer and
returns its value as an int or long type. At the mid-point i.e. when the decimal part of
the argument is 0.5, [Link] method rounds up to the higher integer. In this case,
the nearest integer to -18.51 is -19 so it is the output.
[Link]([Link](-77.66, -87.45));
Output
-77.66
Explanation
[Link] method returns the greater of its 2 arguments. As -77.66 is greater than
-87.45 so it is the output.
[Link]([Link](-0.88));
Output
-1.0
Explanation
[Link] method returns the largest double value that is less than or equal to the
argument and is equal to a mathematical integer. As -1.0 is the largest mathematical
integer less than -0.88 so it is the output.
[Link]([Link](98.5));
Output
98.0
Explanation
[Link] method rounds off its argument to the nearest mathematical integer and
returns its value as a double type. This method behaves in a particular way at the
mid-point i.e. when the decimal part of the argument is 0.5. In such cases, the result is
the integer value that is even. Let's understand this with an example. [Link](97.5)
and [Link](98.5) will both return 98.0. In the case of 97.5, both 97.0 and 98.0 are
equally close to 97.5. [Link] choses the integer that is even so 98.0 is returned. In
the case of 98.5, both 98.0 and 99.0 are equally close to 98.5. [Link] again choses
the integer that is even so 98.0 is returned.
[Link]([Link](65.5));
Output
66.0
