Question

find the value of 16 power 1/2​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

lets x=

16^(1/2)

we can also write in the form of-

√16

+4,-4

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:  

To find: $16^{\frac{1}{2} }$  

• We know, the expression $16^{\frac{1}{2} }$, can also be written as:  

     ⇒$\sqrt{16}$  

• To find the square root of 16, we have to find such a number which when multiplies by itself gives the number 16, that is,  

    ⇒  $x^{2} =16$  

• Also, we know that,  

      ⇒ $4\times4=16$  

      ⇒ $4^{2}=16$  

      ⇒ $-4\times-4=16$  

      ⇒ $4^{2}=16$  

Hence, the square root of 16 is ±4 that is, the value of$16^{\frac{1}{2} }$ is ±4.
