Calculating the square root of a number with a calculator is pretty straightforward. Use the calculator we’ve provided below to do the math.
Simply put, the square root of a number is the value that, when multiplied by itself, gives you the original number. For example, the square root of 16 is 4, because 4*4 = 16.
Square roots have several practical applications, especially in geometry. For example, if you have a square area of 36 square meters, you know that each side is 6 meters because 6*6 = 36. Square roots are also used to solve quadratic equations, in statistics to calculate standard deviation and variation within a data set.
In finance, square roots are applied in volatility analysis to determine price movements of a stock or commodity. Bioengineers use square roots to interpret medical images and raw data with the help of algorithms. They are also used in science when working with right-angled triangles to find the hypotenuse.
In sports science, square roots play a role in assessing physical fitness and calculating medication dosages. This is done by determining body surface area from height and weight using specific parameters.
