In this course we will be entering higher roots.

To get a higher root you will enter "root()" with whatever order you want in parentheses.

Some examples:
EnterTo get
root(4)(x)x4\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{4}}]{{{x}}}}
root(3)(27)273\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{3}}]{{{27}}}} = 3
root(5)(2/5)255\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{5}}]{{\frac{{2}}{{5}}}}}=.8325532074

Enter x5\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{5}}]{{{x}}}}:  

Enter 643\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{3}}]{{{64}}}}:  

Enter x3+y24\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{4}}]{{{x}^{{3}}+{y}^{{2}}}}}:  

Enter 356\displaystyle {\sqrt[{{6}}]{{\frac{{3}}{{5}}}}}:
