why the fuck is there even a square root sign if it has to be converted to a power of one half anyways?

To fuck with brainlets like (You)
because you touch yourself at night
...And the "power of one half" has, in some contexts, to be converted to the square root sign.
You're literally sperging out over the syntax of a function that could just as well be written as f(x) or sqrt(x)
>>8081603
because it does not commute with other powers.
(x^2)^(1/2) is not equal to (x^1/2)^2
>>8081633
does that simplify to abs(x)=x?
>>8081633
What the fuck are you saying?
Yes they are.
>>8081644
well for starters the first one is defined for all real x, while the second one is only defined for positive values of x.
and the first one gives abs(x), the second one gives x indeed.

why the fuck is there even a division sign if it has to be converted to multiplication of the reciprocal anyway?

wat
>>8081657
((-1)^2)^(1/2)=1^(1/2)=1
((-1)^(1/2))^2=i^2=-1

you do the complex conjugate when you take the norm of complex terms you dingdong
