In Google Sheets, the SQRT() function is used to calculate the square root of a given value. It returns the positive square root of the provided value.

The syntax for the SQRT() function in Google Sheets is: SQRT(value)

The "value" parameter represents the number or cell reference for which you want to calculate the square root.

Here's an example of how you can use the SQRT() function in Google Sheets:

=SQRT(A1)

This formula calculates the square root of the value in cell A1. The result will be the positive square root of the value.

You can also directly input a numeric value, like this:

=SQRT(16)

This formula will calculate the square root of 16, which is 4.
