a.(3)1/2 + 2i
b.3.14
c.π (pi symbol?)
d.(16)1/4 + 6
e.(18)1/3
f.1/6
g.6i
h.3 – (-9)1/2

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a.(3)^(1/2) + 2i ---> complex
b. 3.14 ---> real & rational
c. π ---> real & irrational
d. (16)^(1/4) + 6 = 4th root of 16 + 6 = 2 + 6 = 2 ---> real and rational
e. (18)^(1/3) ---> real and irrational
f. 1/6 ---> real & rational
g. 6i ---> complex
h. 3-(-9)^(1/2) = 3-sqrt(-9) = 3-3i ---> complex
