An imaginary number takes the form:
\n" ); document.write( "(i)(i)=-1, because \"%28sqrt%28-1%29%29\"=i,
\n" ); document.write( "In the real number world, the square root of a negative number cannot exist.
\n" ); document.write( "Example: (2)(2)=4 and the sqrt(4)=2
\n" ); document.write( "Example: (-2)(-2)=4 and the sqrt (4)=-2
\n" ); document.write( "When you multiply a number twice, the result will always be a positive number.
\n" ); document.write( ".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "W^2 = -225
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28sqrt%28w%5E2%29%29\"=\"%28sqrt%28-225%29%29\"[Take the square root of both sides]
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28sqrt%28w%5E2%29%29\"=\"%28sqrt%28%28-1%29%28225%29%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28w%29%29\"=\"%2815sqrt%28-1%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "w=15i
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
