how can i type square root on my mac keyboard

Hello all. I have been doing the square root symbol (√) by typing alt/option + v to make the square root.

I want to make that sign not this sign:

Is there any way to produce the first image on a Mac keyboard?


Thanks.


P.S: I want to add this symbol on Word too.

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
