Did you install the database as root or is root member of the os-group dba ? If non of both you will not be able to connect as sysdba.
Usually sqlplus is located at $ORACLE_HOME/bin. You specified ORACLE_HOME during installation of the database (or the database-client).
The default ORACLE_HOME varies between Oracle-releases.
Usually databases are not installed by root but a seperate user (the default username is oracle). Find out if there is such a user on your system (an easy way would be to view /etc/passwd). Oracle-Versions >= 8i come with a script that sets up the environment for you which is /usr/local/bin/oraenv. /usr/local/bin usually is part of your standard PATH. So assuming your database-user is oracle logging in would look like this after you log in to root:
