If unspecified, the square root is the principal root, which is the positive root.
The sign that is used for the square root is actually a root sign: the little 2 before it denotes that it is the square root. A little 3 would indicate it is a cube root, a little 4 that it is a fourth root and so on. However, conventionally, if no number is shown, it may be assumed that it is the square root.
The idea is to take any perfect square out of the square root sign. root(24) = root(4 x 6) = root(4) x root(6) = 2 x root(6).The idea is to take any perfect square out of the square root sign. root(24) = root(4 x 6) = root(4) x root(6) = 2 x root(6).The idea is to take any perfect square out of the square root sign. root(24) = root(4 x 6) = root(4) x root(6) = 2 x root(6).The idea is to take any perfect square out of the square root sign. root(24) = root(4 x 6) = root(4) x root(6) = 2 x root(6).
it's called the radical sign
Negative square root is -√Square root of negative one is i.
The symbol for a a square root sign is: √
(square root sign)5 (square root sign)9 which then simplifies to.. 5 (square root sign)3 The square root sign wouldn't show up properly first time I saved the answer so that's why i have written in brackets where the square root sign should be =]
The square root sign is called a radical
The square root symbol is the radical sign, √.
15 square root sign 5
The name of the tail on the square root sign is the radical.
If unspecified, the square root is the principal root, which is the positive root.
Its the inside of the parenthisis. Ex: Square root sign ( any number of your choice)

In the same way that the square root of 25 can be -5 OR +5, the square root of -1 is -i or +i.
The radical symbol, otherwise known as the "square root sign", lets you take the nth root of any number.Any number can be placed above, and slightly to the left, of the square root sign, to indicate the nth root. For example, the cube root of 27 is 3.The number inside the square root sign (that which you are finding the square root of), is called the radicand.
It is the principal square root.
