Answer: 6

======================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponents of 1/2 are the same as square roots


36^(1/2) = √(36) = 6

If the exponent was say 1/3, then we'd be taking a cube root


36^(1/3) = \sqrt[3]{36}

and this is what a fourth root would look like


36^(1/4) = \sqrt[4]{36}

and so on
