A positive number has two square roots, its principal (positive) root and its negative root. This is because a negative number multiplied by a negative number equals a positive number. In this instance, the square roots of 256 are 16 and -16.
Yes, a positive square root and a negative one. For example, the two square roots of 9 are +3 and -3.
The square roots of any positive real number are a positive and a negative real number. The square roots of any negative real number are a positive and a negative imaginary number. The square roots of any imaginary number or any complex number are two complex numbers.

A positive number has two square roots, that is, there are two solutions to an equation like x2 = 100. The "principal square root" refers to the positive solution.

Any positive number has two square roots, a positive square root and its negative equivalent. This is because two negatives multiplied together equal a positive. In this instance, sqrt(625) = ±25 (that is, 25 and -25).
Any positive integer has two square roots, one positive number and one negative number. This is because a negative number multiplied by a negative number is equal to a positive number.In this instance, the square roots of 36 are 6, and -6.
There are two possible answers because if you square a negative number, you will get a positive answer.
Every number has two square roots. They're the same size, but one is positive and the other is negative.
Any positive number has two square roots, one positive and one negative. In this instance, rounded to two decimal places, sqrt(652) = ±25.53. (That is, 25.53 and -25.53).
Every positive rational number and its negative are the two square roots of the same positive rational number.
Two, a positive and a negative.
