Restate the question: "What is the value of radical (-12)?"
If this is not your question, please clarify and resubmit the question. :-)
If we are dealing with real numbers, then there is no answer: there is no real number whose square is a negative number.
If you are in the realm of imaginary and complex numbers, then you can say that:
rad(-12) = rad(-1*12) = rad(-1)*rad12 = i*rad12, where i is the number whose square is -1.
rad12 in turn can be written as rad(4*3) = 2rad3 =~ 3.5
The final answer can be written as 2irad3 or ~3.5i.

How do you find negative square root of 49?
You don't. If the negative sign is outside the radical, then you take the square root of the number and apply the negative. If the negative sign is inside the radical, you will have an imaginary number.
Can you have a negative number in a radical?
maby.... maby not...
How do you simplify negative 125 under a radical without a calculator?
It depends what power is associated with the radical.
What is the radical of negative 169?
(-169).5 = 13i
How is a radical equation similar to a linear equation?
Technically,no. A radical equation has a radical (Square root) in it, and has two solutions because the square root can be positive or negative.
Why can't you factor negative radical numbers?
You cannot factor negative radical numbers because the square of a number must always be positive. A negative number multiplied by a negative number produces a positive number. So, it is impossible to have a negative radical.
How do you write the square root of negative numbers in imaginary form?
easy, lets take radical negative 3 for example. you can take out a "i" because i = the radical negative one. There fore the answer is i radical 3.
Is tin a positive radical or negative radical?
Tin ions are positive (cations).
What is the square root of negative 25 in radical form?
2i radical 5 * * * * * No. it is ± i*radical(25) which is ± 5i. Not sure why the answer is requireed in radical form.
