    I googled and found the answer.

    Well, I found a pattern, though if this is the one you�re looking for is anyone�s guess.
    Take the pattern, 3, 3, 5, 4, 4, 6, 5, 5, 7,�..
    Multiply it term by term with the pattern 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
    Square each one, then the pattern is
    (3x1)^2 = 9
    (3x2)^2 = 36
    (5x3)^2 = 225
    (4x4)^2 = 256
    (4x5)^2 = 400
    (6x6)^2 = 1296
    (5x7)^2 = 1225
    (5x8)^2 = 1600
    So the answer is 1296

    How to solve this is to recognize the original pattern and then to figure out the secondary pattern 3, 3, 5, 4, 4, ?, 5, 5, 7. Here you can see a recurring pattern of y = (x , x , x+2), y, y + 1, y + 2, so you can figure out that missing number and then plug it in to the original problem.

    I knew they were all squares, but I didn't see the base pattern underneath, though didn't feel like looking either.
