A number is a perfect square (or a square number) if its square root is an integer; that is to say, it is the product of an integer with itself. Here, the square root of 12 006 is about 109.572.
Thus, the square root of 12 006 is not an integer, and therefore 12 006 is not a square number.
The square of a number (here 12 006) is the result of the product of this number (12 006) by itself (i.e., 12 006 × 12 006); the square of 12 006 is sometimes called "raising 12 006 to the power 2", or "12 006 squared".
The square of 12 006 is 144 144 036 because 12 006 × 12 006 = 12 0062 = 144 144 036.
As a consequence, 12 006 is the square root of 144 144 036.
