The process of determining the square root involves identifying a numeral that, when multiplied by itself, yields the initial number. This is typically denoted as √. For instance, the square root of 9 equals 3, as 3*3 equals 9. Techniques for deriving square roots encompass guess-and-check, utilization of a calculator, or the application of mathematical equations.
