Answer 2

write down the numbers:
0 , 1, 2, 3,... (this obviously goes on forever)
now square each number. you get
0,1,4,9,.... (also goes on forever)
this 2nd list are all perfect squares

Answer 3

for a "not perfect square"

pick a number *not* on the list of 0,1,2,3...
there are lots of such numbers: for example 1.5
or 3/2
square that number and the result is a square, but not a perfect square

Answer 4

A perfect square is a number that is squared (multiplied by itself), and can be square rooted to be a perfect whole number.

Examples of a perfect square: 2 squared is 4, if you square root it, it is 2.
Examples of things that aren't perfect squares: The number 6 because you multiply 2 by 3 to get it, then when you square root it you get a decimal.

Answer 5
