A raiz quadrada de um número negativo não é definida no conjunto dos números reais, mas pode ser avaliada no conjunto dos números complexos.

Para

4

−4

, usamos a propriedade dos números complexos:

4

=

4

1

−4

=

4

−1

Sabemos que:

4

=

2

4

=2

1

=

𝑖

−1

=i, onde

𝑖

i é a unidade imaginária.

Portanto:

4

=

2

𝑖

−4

=2i

No conjunto dos números complexos, o resultado é

Sqrt(-4) is an irrational number therefore we must use i. i=sqrt(-1) allows us to pull i out of sqrt(-4):

sqrt(4)*i leaves us with 2i

The square root of -4 is NOT an irrational number but an imaginary number.
