If you have not studied complex numbers, then the answer is as follows:
The rules of multiplication for real numbers are that
a positive times a positive is a positive, and
a negative times a negative is a negative.
[Also, 0 times 0 is 0].
The upshot of all that is the square is never negative. And so, the answer is that there is no real number whose square is -62.
If you have studied complex numbers then you should not be asking such basic questions! Still, the square roots of -62 are the complex pair ±7.874i where i is the imaginary square root of -1.

Yes you can. The negative square root of 36, for example, is -6.
The square root of -118 is: 10.862780491200215 i
Such that, rounded to two decimal places, the square root of 62 is equal to 7.87, the square root of -62 is equal to 7.87 i. ============================================================= You cannot have a square root for a negative number as the multiplication of any number with itself will ALWAYS give a positive number
square root of a negative number is imaginary square root of negative 1 is defined as i square root of negative 144 is sqrt ((144)(-1)) = 12i
The square root of negative 37 is: ~6.0827 i

Negative 64 is the square root of an integer. The square root of -64 is not an integer.
Nothing. You cannot have a square root of a negative number. The square root of negative one is called i, but i is an imaginary number. It does not exist and does not follow the properties of real numbers. (For example, if a and b are positive, then the square root of a times the square root of b is the square root of ab. But the square root of -7 is not the square root of 7 times i.)
