Positive and negative roots, eg 12 x 12 = 144 and -12 x -12 = 144
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.
A number like 20 has two square roots: one positive and one negative. Specifically, the square roots of 20 are √20 and -√20. In general, any positive real number has two square roots, while zero has one, and negative numbers have no real square roots.
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.
Two, a positive and a negative.
Every positive rational number and its negative are the two square roots of the same positive rational number.
