You can put this solution on YOUR website!
D squared = 85
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "D^2 = 85 is not a problem, it's an equation.
\n" ); document.write( "If you say, \"Solve for D,\" that's a problem.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"D%5E2+=+85\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"D+=+sqrt%2885%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Using a calculator:
\n" ); document.write( "D =~ +9.2195
\n" ); document.write( "D =~ -9.2195
\n" ); document.write( "
