the square root of a negative number has to involve i, which stands for imaginary numbers like sqrt-1... is it finding the square root of -36 or +36?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and is it only these multiple choice answers?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

algebra 1

then I would assume that the correct answer is c:-36 because this square root cannot be simplified without involving imaginary numbers, which are more in algebra 2 territory
