The process of calculating the square root of a number in Google Sheets involves using the mathematical function “SQRT” followed by the desired number. This will provide the square root value of the number, which can be further manipulated or used in other calculations within the spreadsheet. This feature allows for efficient and accurate mathematical computations within Google Sheets.
SQRT
Returns the positive square root of a positive number.
Sample Usage
