Best Answer

A square is made up of two of the same factors.

These factors can be positive or negative.

Each one is therefore a root of the square.

Example: 2*2 =4 and -2*-2 = 4

Both 2 and -2 are square roots of 4.

I hope this helps!

What is the third square root of 0.125?

It is not clearly mentioned that whether it is the "THIRD" root we have to calculate.. or the "SQUARE ROOT THREE TIMES.. i.e the EIGHTth ROOT".. The answer posted here before was not correct in a sense that the if the question demands "third square root" which can also mean the "EIGHTth" root.. Re-edit: It seems rather obvious that this answerer is new to wiki answers and is not in the habit of question interpretation. The question is most likely thus; " What is the cubic root of 0.125. The answer then would be..., cubic root(0.125) = 0.5 ====( calculate the square root three times?!? sounds like a stretched interpretation ) Do you know what square root means? -_- if u know.. then u clearly know what "third square root means" .. huh -_-
