You can  put this solution on YOUR website! find a complex number, in a+bi form, such that radical i = a+bi. 
---- 
0+i = (cos(90) + isin(90) 
------------------------------- 
Sqrt(i) = (cos(90+360n) + isin(90+360n))^(1/2) 
--- 
sqrt(i) = (cos[(90+360n)/2] + isin[(90+360n)/2] 
--- 
Let n = 0, then: 
sqrt(i) = [cos(45) + isin(45)] = (sqrt(2))/2 + i(sqrt(2))/2 
--------------- 
Let n = 1, then: 
sqrt(i) = [cos(225)+isin(225) = (-sqrt(2)/2)+i(sqrt(2))/2 
----------------- 
Both answers are in the form a+bi
