It is an irrational number, which is a kind of real number.
No, there is no real number that satisfies the equation √(-28). The square root of a negative number is not defined in the real number system. However, if we extend our number system to include complex numbers, we can define a square root of -28 as √(-28) = 2√7i, where i is the imaginary unit.
Square root of -1 is an imaginary number (√-1 = i), √-16 = √-1 * √16 √-16 = i * 4 √-16 = 4 i
