How do you find the square root of negative 24?

Answer 1

24 = 4*6So sqrt(24) = sqrt(4*6) = 2*sqrt(6)

and so sqrt(-24) = +/- 2*sqrt(6)*i where i is the imaginary square root of -1.

Answer 2

The square root of a negative number is not a real number. In mathematics, the square root of a negative number is represented as an imaginary number, denoted by "i". In this case, the square root of negative 24 would be √(-24) = 2i√6.
