What are the differences between a and a square roots?

a is a real number since we use just letters to represent real numbers. if a > 0, then its square root is also a real number, so it has two square roots, one positive and one negative. Be careful when you use the radical sign, because it is looking only for the principal square root of a, which is the positive one. if a < 0, then its square root is an imaginary number.


HOW to take out fourth square root of a NUMBER?

The fourth square root is the 16th root of a number. On a computer, to find the 16th root of a number, say 5.6, enter 5.6^(1/16). If the number you start with is positive, you will have 2 real roots (one positive and one negative) and 14 complex roots. If it is negative, you will have 16 complex roots.
