Root Calculator

How to use it

1. {'step': 1, 'description': 'Identify number (125) and index (3 for cube root)'}
2. {'step': 2, 'description': 'Calculate reciprocal of index: 1 ÷ 3 = 0.3333'}
3. {'step': 3, 'description': 'Raise to power: 125^(1/3) = 5'}
4. {'step': 4, 'description': 'Verify: 5³ = 5 × 5 × 5 = 125 ✓'}

Common mistakes

• ⚠️ Trying to find even roots (square, 4th) of negative numbers in current domain
• ⚠️ Confusing root index with the result value
• ⚠️ Not recognizing that square root is index 2 (default)

Worked example

Calculate sqrt(144) and cube root of 27.

The result ({result}) is the number that, when raised to the power of index, equals the original number.
