Answer 2

Answer:

square root of -1 = i

Step-by-step explanation:

the imaginary Unit number is a solution to the quadratic equation x^{2}+1=0. basically any number times itself is a positive number or zero so you can't ever get to a negative number by squaring. Since square roots undo squaring, negative numbers can't have square roots.
