<p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse operation of squaring a<a>number</a>. 1040 is not a<a>perfect square</a>. The square root of 1040 can be expressed in both radical and exponential forms. In radical form, it is expressed as √1040, whereas in<a>exponential form</a>, it is (1040)^(1/2). √1040 ≈ 32.24903, which is an<a>irrational number</a>because it cannot be expressed as a<a>fraction</a>of<a>integers</a>p/q, where q ≠ 0.</p>
