Sqrt pi
Syntax:¶
SQRTPI(number)
- number: The numeric value for which you want to calculate the square root of (number × π). This must be a non-negative numeric value.
Description:¶
The SQRTPI function returns the square root of the product of a given number and π (pi, approximately
3.14159265358979). For example:
SQRTPI(number) = √(number × π)
Examples:¶
=SQRTPI(1)would return approximately1.772454, because √(1 × π) = √π ≈ 1.772454.=SQRTPI(2)would return approximately2.506628, because √(2 × π) ≈ 2.506628.=SQRTPI(0)would return0, because √(0 × π) = 0.=SQRTPI(3.14)would return approximately3.137594, because √(3.14 × π) ≈ 3.137594.=SQRTPI(4)would return approximately3.544908, because √(4 × π) ≈ 3.544908.
Notes:¶
- The
SQRTPIfunction calculates the square root of the product of the provided number and π. - It only works with non-negative numbers. If you provide a negative value, Excel will return a
#NUM!error. - It is commonly used in engineering, geometry, and physics calculations where π appears in mathematical formulas.
- The result of the
SQRTPIfunction is always a non-negative value, as it calculates the principal (positive) square root.
