Express 5.6 x 10 (minue two squared) in standard notation

5.6 * 10^-2 = .056 moving decimal point two to the left

To express 5.6 x 10^(-2) squared in standard notation, we need to evaluate the expression (5.6 x 10^(-2))^2.

First, let's simplify the exponent by squaring it. When we square a number, we multiply it by itself. So, 10^(-2) squared becomes (10^(-2)) * (10^(-2)).

To multiply numbers with the same base, we add their exponents. In this case, the base is 10, so we can rewrite the expression as 10^(-2 + -2).

Adding the exponents, we get 10^(-4).

Now, we can multiply 5.6 by 10^(-4): 5.6 x 10^(-4).

This expression can be written in standard notation as 0.000056.
