What is square root of negative five squared?

Answer 1

first of all the square root of any negative number is technically impossible, but in certain maths it can be accepted in terms of imaginary number, i. so to answer your question it is about 2.236067977i

Answer 2

The square root of (-5)2 is 5. (-5 is also a square root, but "the" square root refers to the positive root in this case.)

The square root of -52 is the square root of -25, or 5i. "i" is the imaginary unit. Read about "imaginary numbers" or "complex numbers" for more information.

This would create confusions. Would that mean that the square of any negative number is negative?
