Enter square root or exponent statement:
Evaluate √-58
Term 1 has a square root, so we evaluate and simplify:
A negative square root needs to use imaginary numbers:
The imaginary number i is denoted as √-1
Simplify √-58.
Since -58 is less than 0, we have an imaginary number of i where i = √-1We can express this as √58√-1Since √-1 = i, we have √58iSimplify √58.
Checking square roots, we see that 72 = 49 and 82 = 64.Our answer in decimal format is between 7 and 8Our answer is not an integer, so we try simplify it into the product of an integer and a radical.We do this by listing each product combo of 58 checking for integer square root values below:√58 = √1√58√58 = √2√29
From that list, the highest factor that has an integer square root is 1.Therefore, we use the product combo √58 = √1√58Evaluating square roots, we see that √1 = 1
Since 1 is the greatest common factor, this square root cannot be simplified any further:
Multiply by our constant of 1
√58 = √58√58i = ±sqrt(58)i
