I'm not quite sure, but when the number inside the radical (square root sign) is negative, there is a no real-number solution.
- (400^.5) = -(20) = -20 you just do the square root of the number, and attach the negative in front. and if you ever include the negative inside the square root, you'd have to deal with i, which is an imaginary number that signifies the square root of negative 1.
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.
The square root of a negative number is not real.
you can square a negative number but you can not square root a negative number

Nothing. You cannot have a square root of a negative number. The square root of negative one is called i, but i is an imaginary number. It does not exist and does not follow the properties of real numbers. (For example, if a and b are positive, then the square root of a times the square root of b is the square root of ab. But the square root of -7 is not the square root of 7 times i.)
A negative square root is an imaginary number.
square root of a negative number is imaginary square root of negative 1 is defined as i square root of negative 144 is sqrt ((144)(-1)) = 12i
No. In general, the square root of a negative number is an imaginary number, which is not a real number.
If you're referring to the square root of a negative number, it's an imaginary number.
Negative the square root of 36 is -6, which is a whole number.
