Note, first, that
i2 = -1; also, that
(1 + i)2 = 1 + 2i - 1 = 2i; and, finally, that
[±½(√2) ]2 = ½.
Thus, [±½(√2)(1 + i)]2 = i.
Therefore, [±½ (√2)(i - 1)]2 = -i, and
±½ (√2)(i - 1) = √-i.

In case calculus is familiar, you may prefer to find the desired roots in this manner:
eiθ = cosθ + i sinθ; thus, when
θ = ½ π, eiθ = i; and, when
θ = ¼ π, eiθ = +√i.
Then, +√i = cos ¼ π + i sin ¼ π
= (½√2) + i ½√2
= (½√2) (1 + i).
This gives,
+√-i = (+√i)(+√-1)
= i(+√i)
= (½√2) i(1 + i)
= (½√2) (i - 1).
Therefore the two roots are:
±√-i = ±(½√2)(i - 1).

The first method is simpler, for proving the result; the second method, for finding it.
