The form of the command should be something like this:
mysql -h localhost -u root -p
I wouldn't specify a password on the command line for security reasons.
If you execute the command I posted above, you will be automatically
prompted for the user's password. Of course, if you just reset the
database, the root user won't have a password so you should omit the
"-p" argument.
Alternatively, you can always run /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation and
that will help secure your installation. It will also help you set the
root password.
