Negative numbers cannot be rooted. As it can be seen on a calculator when -25 is rooted is says error. Only positive numbers can be rooted. If it resulted in a negative try going over the problem.

What is the nonnegative square root of a number?
Definition of Square Root: The Square Root of a number 'X' is equal to 'A' when X=A*A By definition, the square root of a positive number has two answers, one negative and one positive, that have equal magnitudes. i.e. The square roots of 4 are 2 and -2. The Non-Negative Square Root is simply asking for the positive root.
Square root of -121?
it is impossible to get the square root of a negative, since the definition of a square root is something times itself. example: the square root of 16 is 4 because 4 x 4 = 16. and a negative times a negative is a positive, so the square root of a negative is impossible. however, you can do the square root of 121 (which is 11) and make the 11 a negative. 11 x 11 = 121 and -11 x -11 = 121 but you could make 11 negative after the fact, if that is what you wanted to do.
