Roots are displayed as the reciprocal of their corresponding power. Thus, squaring a number is x2 while square rooting a number is x1/2 or x0.5. In this case, cubing a number would be x3 so cube rooting a number would be x1/3 or x0.333...
Taking a number to the second power is known as "squaring" the number.
That's because you are multiplying it by itself. So "two, squared' means the same as 'two times two', and 'three, squared' means the same as 'three times three'. Multiplying a number by itself is exactly the same process of finding the area of a square who's dimensions are the number in question. Therefore multiplying a number by itself is known as squaring. For the same reason of raising a number to the third power is known as cubing. (Because its the same process you would use to find the volume of a cube.)
Squaring is a number raised to the power of two. Scientific notation is a number multiplied by 10 to the power of a number.
squaring a number is when you times it by itself the square root of a number is the actual base number e.g the square root of 49 is 7 and 7x7=49

Squaring. Doubling is only multiplying a number by 2, whereas, squaring is multiplying a number by itself :)
Squaring a number in math is basicly multiplying a number by itself such as... 3^2= 3*3=9 or 3^3=3*3*3=27 ^= the squared number *= multiplication I hope this information was useful.

It is loosely called "cubing" the number.
Squaring a number means multiplying it by itself. For example, squaring the number 5 means multiplying 5 x 5.
Squaring is a number raised to the power of two. Scientific notation is a number multiplied by 10 to the power of a number.
