# 1

Since 4^2 = 4*4 = 16

this means sqrt(16) = 4

The square root undoes what squaring does. It's like how division undoes multiplication


Note: sqrt stands for "square root"

-------------------------------------------

5^2 = 25

So sqrt(25) = 5

===================================================================

# 2

5^3 = 5*5*5 = 125 is correct

So is 20^2 = 20*20 = 400

Nice job on this problem.
