Question

Which expression is equivalent to StartRoot negative 80 EndRoot? Negative 4 StartRoot 5 EndRoot Negative 4 StartRoot 5 EndRoot i 4 StartRoot 5 EndRoot i 4 StartRoot 5 EndRoot

Answer 1

Answer:

(4√5)i

Step-by-step explanation:

Complex number is a number in the form a + bi, where both a and b are real numbers. A complex number has two parts, the first part a is the real part of the complex number and the second part b is the imaginary part of the complex number. Also, i = √(-1), hence i² = -1.

Complex numbers can also be graphed on the complex plane.

√(-80) = √(-1) × √(80)

But since √(-1) = i

√(-80) = i × √80 = i × √16 × √5 = i × 4 × √5 = (4√5)i

√(-80) = (4√5)i
