Negative square roots are considered irrational numbers. This is because a negative square root, such as the square root of -9, cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers. Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as fractions of two integers, and since negative square roots fall into this category, they are considered irrational.
If the positive square root (for example, square root of 2) is irrational, then the corresponding negative square root (for example, minus square root of 2) is also irrational.
