how do you find the square root symbol on the computer

Answer 1

i'm not sure there is on a keyboard, maybe in your word documents, if using Microsoft click on inserts and choose the insert symbol, and search through the programmed symbols in the word program.

Answer 2

You have to be careful pasting text from Word docs, as fonts may get munged up.

Here's a selection of special characters I have gleaned from other Jiskha posts. They are safe to copy/paste.

m ∊ √ ∫ ∂ ∝

π µ θ p ω η Ø ∑ δ λ ° ∢

∆ ∇
