What is the value of (V13)2 ?

Question

Accepted Answer

This problem does not have to be computed, because the two symbols cancel each other. The radical sign (\ ) in (\ 13):tells you to find the square root of 13. But the exponent (2) tells you to square the answer--that is, to multiply the square root of 13 by itself. This would get you back to 13.
