Why can you cube root a negative number but you cannot square root a negative number?

When two negative or two positive numbers are multiplied together, they always result in a positive number; and when a positive and a negative number are multiplied together, they will always result in a negative number. Thus, you cannot square root a negative number because there are no real numbers that, when squared, would result in a negative number. For example: (-2)(-2) = 4 (2)(2) = 4 √4 = +/- 2 √(-4) = ? No real number, when squared, is a negative! Does not exist! The cube of a number is different, because you are multiplying three numbers together instead of just two. As a result, you can get a negative or a positive number. For example: (-2)(-2)(-2) = -8r (2)(2)(2) = 8 3√8 = 2 3√(-8) = -2
