\[\huge \text{\[\sqrt[index]{radicand}\]}\]

Answer 11

whats an index ? can you show me and example of what both would look like ?please.

Answer 12

\[\huge \text{\sqrt{radicand}} \implies \sqrt{radicand}\]
\[\huge \text{\sqrt[index]{radicand}} \implies \sqrt[index]{radicand}\]

Answer 13

\[\huge \text{\sqrt{m}} \implies \sqrt m\]
\[\huge \text{\sqrt[n]{m}} \implies \sqrt[n]{m}\]
got it?
