Hopefully you've learned that "square root of x" means \[\Large \sqrt{x}\] that's the mathmetical notation way to write it

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

later on you'll learn that fractional exponents represent radicals and roots so \[\LARGE \sqrt{x} = x^{{}^\frac{1}{2}}\] \[\LARGE \sqrt[3]{x} = x^{{}^\frac{1}{3}}\] \[\LARGE \sqrt[4]{x} = x^{{}^\frac{1}{4}}\] \[\LARGE \sqrt[n]{x} = x^{{}^\frac{1}{n}}\] where n is any integer
