Abstract
We prove the existence of infinitely many square centred numbers which are simultaneously perfect squares via a completely elementary approach which circumvents the need to use the theory of Pell's equation. The advantage of this approach is that we uncover an intE;Jresting one-toone correspondence between the square centred square number and the square triangular numbers.
