Algebra.Com's Answer #365769 by Theo(13342)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! the square root of 596 squared is equal to 596. \n" ); document.write( "the square root of anything squared is anything. \n" ); document.write( "example: \n" ); document.write( "the square root of 4^2 = 4 \n" ); document.write( "the square root of 6^2 = 6 \n" ); document.write( "you can prove this for yourself by squaring 4 and squaring 6 \n" ); document.write( "you get 16 and 36 \n" ); document.write( "square root of 16 = 4 \n" ); document.write( "square root of 36 = 6 \n" ); document.write( "in your problem you want to take the square root of 596^2. \n" ); document.write( "that equals 596. \n" ); document.write( "if you use your calculator and square 596 you'll get 355216 \n" ); document.write( "if you use your calculator and take the square root of 355216 you'll get 596. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
