To take the square root of a complex number:* Write the original complex number in polar notation (absolute value and angle).

* For the square root, the angle will be half the angle. The absolute value will be the square root of that of the original number.

* There is a second square root: the same as above, but add 180 degrees (or pi, if using radians) to the angle.

* If you wish, you can convert the result(s) back to rectangular coordinates, i.e., real number + imaginary number.

Most scientific calculators have functions to convert from rectangular to polar and vice versa.

How do you write complex numbers in the form a plus bi?

A complex number comes in two parts: a real part and an imaginary part. If the value of the real part is a and the value of the imaginary part is b, the number is written as a + bi.


What is a non real complex number?

Complex numbers are written in the form (a+bi), where i is the square root of -1.A real number does not have any reference to i in it.A non real complex number is going to be a complex number with a non-zero value for b, so any number that requires you to write the number i is going to be an answer to your question.2+2i for example. (2 plus 2 times i)
