sorry for the trivial question, I’m trying to make a function on dates from my Lac file on a math type column, but I don’t understand how to use the square root, does it have a specific command to be called? the formula I have to do is the following (kp- (√ kp^2-pp\*(AQ/2)^2))/pp  
Could someone help me please, in case you can tell me if I’m wrong in using the math column maybe I have to use something else? Thank you

X^0.5 is the equivalent of square root.
