The Math.sqrt()
static method returns the square root of a number. That is
Math.sqrt(x)
x

The square root of x

.
Because sqrt()
is a static method of Math
, you always use it as Math.sqrt()
, rather than as a method of a Math
object you created (Math
is not a constructor).
Math.sqrt(-1); // NaN Math.sqrt(-0); // -0 Math.sqrt(0); // 0 Math.sqrt(1); // 1 Math.sqrt(2); // 1.414213562373095 Math.sqrt(9); // 3 Math.sqrt(Infinity); // Infinity
