Without "i", it would be impossible to square root a negative number, as any number times itself will always equal a positive.
Why cant you evaluate the square root of negative twenty five using real numbers?
using basic math principles, you can't find the square root of a negative number because in order for a number to be a square root, you have to multiply it by itself to get your radical. since a negative times a negative and a positive times a positive are both positive, it is impossible to find the square root of a negative number
