What is the Square Root of a Number?
In mathematics, the square root of a number is the number when multiplied by itself equals the radicand, or base of the radical.
\sqrt{x} =square\ root\ (or)\\(square\ root)*(square\ root)=x
In the above equations:
- √ = the radical sign (radix)
- x = the radicand, or the final value we'd get multiplying the square root by itself
Using the Square Root Calculator
