[dba-Tech] Excel question

Hi all,

I ought to know this, but don't. Call me stupid or at best ignorant. How
does one enter a formula involving exponents? I want to enter these
formulae, using pseudo-syntax:

(x^2 + y^2)^2
(x^2 - y^2)^2 + (2xy)^2

Where the caret represents Power of, so x^2 means x squared, and x and y
represent cell locations that contain arbitrary values.

Can you help?
TIA!
