When getting a fit using regression analysis, we get a rho value or corelation value. What is its relation ship with R^2 used commonly in regression analysis?

Thanks

The relationship between the correlation coefficient, rho, and the R-squared value is given by:

Rho = (R-squared)^0.5

I hope this helps.
