Usually you do not use the prefix micro by itself, it must be followed by the name of a unit: 1 micrometer=10^-6 meter. This being said, you want to enter 100*10^-6 and raise it to power 2.
For this you can use the exponent rules.
With your calculator: You have a key near which is written [10 to x]; you access the function with [2nd][10 to x]
In what follows, I will enter (10^-6)* 100 and square it. I will use the change sign (-) or [+/-] key
(-6) [2nd][10 to x] [*] 100 [=] [x^2] [=]
The first = calculates 100*10^(-6), the second [=] calculates the square of the number obtained after the first [=].
There are other ways that use parentheses to avoid ambiguities, but I think this is the safest one for you. Be warned that the result will most likely be displayed in scientific format, 1.00 -08 where the -08 will be raised with respect to the main level line. If not, the result will be 0.00000001

Enter the number and press the square root key. You can download a guidebook from TI here.
