The precondition on the link you shared has -1 <= x && x <= 1, so 99 is way outside of that range. But even so, testing for x=1, which is supposed to be inside that range, 0.5 doesn't seem tolerably close to 0.4142.

I have a suspicion that the accuracy number is the mean of accuracies over all valid floats in the range (or something approximating that), which is going to be weighted towards zero where the accuracy is higher, and perhaps where sqrt near 1 has some artefacts.
