Some scientific calculators can't handle complex or imaginary numbers. If you happen to have a special calculator that does, probably the manual will tell you how to enter them.

The HP 48 and up series does. It depends on if your calculator is in Polar Coordinate mode or X-Y coordinate mode, but a quick way to get the imaginary number i (regardless of which mode the calculator is currently in), is to press -1, then 'square root' button.
