Answer:

C. They are both perfect squares and perfect cubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect squares are numbers that their square root can be found easily without any remainder.

Given the following patterns;

1*1 = 1  and 1*1*1 = 1

It can be seen that 1 is 1 perfect square since 1*1 = 1² = 1

Also 1 is perfect cube since 1*1*1 = 1³ = 1 (cube of the value gives 1)

Similarly for the expression;

8*8 = 64

8² = 64 (since the square of 8 gives 64, then 64 is known to be a perfect square)

Also 4*4*4 = 64

i.e 4³ = 64 (This shows that the cube root of 64 is 4 making it a perfect cube since we can get a whole number for the cube root of 64)

The same is applicable for other expressions 729 = 27 × 27, and 9 × 9 × 9, 4,096 = 64 × 64, and 16 × 16 × 16

This values are easily expressed as a constant multiple of a number showing that they are both perfect squares and perfect cubes.
