if you divide all things being linear and nonlinear, first two are nonlinear, constant is linear, and the last one is irrational and belongs to nonlinear

Techically a radical, typically it is the square root, but it can also mean a surd (unknown root).

x^3 is third degree.
x^2 is second degree.
sqrt{x} is of degree half.

A square root is not necessarily only irrational. Square root of four is an integer. The principal square root is a natural.
