No.
The opposite (or inverse function) of the square root would be the square.
9 is the square ROOT of 81. Calculating a square root is the inverse operation of squaring a number.
Let's illustrate with an example. The square function takes a number as its input, and returns the square of a number. The opposite (inverse) function is the square root (input: any non-negative number; output: the square root). For example, the square of 3 is 9; the square root of 9 is 3. The idea, then, is that if you apply first a function, then its inverse, you get the original number back.
yes
The inverse operation of taking the square root is to calculate the square.
Square root is the inverse operation of a square.
No.

XX or X*X, can be written as X squared. The inverse of a function "sort of cancels it out". I know the inverse of a square is the square root. Since we need the inverse of X squared, it's inverse is the square root of X. sqrt(x)
The square of the square root of 36. Which can also be stated as the square of 6.

It is called the "inverse" operation. (*The term inverse is specifically used for multiplication and division, where the inverse of x is 1/x.) Inverse operations: addition / subtraction multiplication/ division square / square root cube / cube root
