With a negative number inside the square root, this expression represents a complex number. The first thing to do with this is write the square root in terms of "i", which is . So we factor out -1:

Then we use a property of radicals, , to write the square root of the product as the product of the square roots of the factors:

Not only does the simplify to "i", but also simplifies to 10:
-2 + i*10
or
-2 + 10i
