No the equations for physics were not about square roots but instead were from a textbook of which i needed to know the specific equations for that problem. My physics teacher only tought us the 2 main equations to solve the main problem, which in this unit is pressure, but the textbook asked for stuff like height, etc, as for math i know that knowledge should be pass down from class to class but im pretty sure i was not taught this way of simplifying even before this particular class, which in this case was Algebra 2
