What is Square Root and Cube Root? What are Square Root and Cube Root Problems? 🤷‍♀️

The square root and cube root are mathematical operations, that involve finding a number that, when raised to a certain power, gives a specific result. Square root and cube root problems involve finding the square root or cube root of a given number, solving equations involving these roots, or solving expressions containing these roots. Here are some questions along with the formula that you can practice on square root and cube root.

How to Find the Square Root and Cube Root? ⬇️

To determine the square root of a number, we have to identify the number that was squared to get the original value. For instance, if we have to find the square root of 16, then it is easy to figure out that the number is obviously 4. Because when we multiply 4*4, we get the result 16. Hence, √16 = 4. 

Similarly, in the case of finding the cube root, consider the example of 64, where a cube of 4 results in 64. Therefore, the cube root of 64 is 4. Now, it is easy to find square roots and cube roots of smaller numbers like this. However, in the case of larger numbers, this is not a feasible option. In the case of a large number, the prime factorization method will help to solve the question.

Square Root and Cube Root Formulas

Square Root Formula : If x² = y, we say that the square root of y is x and we write y = x.

Cube Root Formula: The cube root of a given number x is the number whose cube is x. We, denote the cube root of x by x.
