Question 75144: I have to do a project on radicals and square roots. Part of our extremely confusing assignment is to show our radical "disguised" as an imaginary number, both simplified and unsimplified. I have looked up imaginary numbers and though I understand the definition (sort of) I don't understand at ALL how this translates to my radical. My radical is [the square root of] 6875. Would you please help me?
