#sqrt3 = 1.7321#

Explanation:

The square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number. For #3#, that number is #1.7321#.

#sqrt3 = 1.7321#

You can check this by squaring the square root to see if it is #3#:

#1.7321^2 = 3.00017041#

Since I rounded the square root, the square it is not exactly #3#, but #3.0002# is very close.
