Simplifying Imaginary Numbers, yes, Imaginary!

What are Imaginary Numbers?

  • Imaginary Numbers are complex numbers, which is in the form of a+bi. A and B are real numbers and i is the square root of -1.
Simplifying Imaginary Numbers are easy. Since the square root of i is -1, simplifying negative square roots are easy. 
For example:
The square root of -9.
To simplify the square root of -9 you must find the square root of -1, which is i.
Than, you find the square root of 9 because the square root of -1 is already found.
The square root of 9 is 3, so finally your answer is 3i.
And that is how you simplify imaginary numbers.
