kvadratni koren

In mathematics, if x2 = y, then x is a square root of y. Square roots are expressed by a 'radical sign'.

The square root of any number x2 is x. The square root of 2 is not a whole number but is approximately 1.414.

Actually, each of these has both a positive and a negative square root. Thus the square root of any x2 is +x, and so the square root of 16 is +4.
