When it comes to assessing radicals, we're essentially looking for the root of a specific number. The most frequently seen radical is the square root, which is denoted by √. To effectively evaluate a radical, our task is to discover the number that, when squared for a square root (or raised to the power of three for a cube root, and so on), results in the number that is located under the radical.
