Why is the keypad of a calculator different from that of a telephone?

The calculator keypad is based on the configuration of older, mechanical calculators and adding machines. Even back when there was no such thing as a "calculator" there were mechanical devices that could add, subtract, multiply and divide. The layout of the keys in these machines were always with the smaller numbers on the bottom and the larger numbers on the top. The 100 key machines had a row of zeros across the bottom, a row of ones next in the line above and twos after that. They went on up to a row of nines at the top. You would punch in your number, using whatever keys were necessary. then depending on what you wanted to do, you would either punch in the next number or you would put in your operation.

The phone started out with a rotary dial with the one at the top of the dial and the beginning of the alphabet starting with the number two, counter clockwise on the dial. This meant you turned the dial clockwise when you used it. This is the more comfortable direction to turn a dial with your finger. When push button phones came out, they just naturally followed the small numbers at the top rule that was started with the rotary dial phones.

In simple terms please explain how to use square root keys on a calculator?

type in the number you want to find the square root of, then press the square root button. if it doesnt tell you straight away, press =.

ADDED:

A good tip, and one I find useful, to verify you have understood the method is to try it on a number you know. So here for example, you know the square root of 4 is 2, and the square root of 100 is 10. So if you try the method and see the right answer, as the calculator can't make mistakes but can only follow your instructions, you know you have used it correctly.

What does a flashing AC button mean on a 2003 Toyota 4Runner?

Most of the time it means that the AC refrigerant has leaked out or that the AC doesn't work for some reason. Understand that most vehicles engage the AC when the defroster is on because the AC will dry the air, clearing the windshield quicker. If you turn on the Defroster and the AC light flashes, it just means that the AC won't turn on.
