Is it possible to find the square root of a negative number in the real number system?
No. There is no real number which multiplied by itself forms a negative number.A negative times a negative is a positive, and only a positive times a negative is a negative.However, in calculus there is an "imaginary value" (called i ) which represents the square root of -1.Square roots of larger negative numbers are represented by the square of the absolute value times i .
HOW to take out fourth square root of a NUMBER?
The fourth square root is the 16th root of a number. On a computer, to find the 16th root of a number, say 5.6, enter 5.6^(1/16). If the number you start with is positive, you will have 2 real roots (one positive and one negative) and 14 complex roots. If it is negative, you will have 16 complex roots.
If the sum of the roots of x to the power of 3 minus x to the power of 2 minus 2x plus 2 equals 0 is zero find all the roots?
1 and the positive and negative square roots of 2
Why cant you evaluate the square root of negative twenty five using real numbers?
using basic math principles, you can't find the square root of a negative number because in order for a number to be a square root, you have to multiply it by itself to get your radical. since a negative times a negative and a positive times a positive are both positive, it is impossible to find the square root of a negative number
