Square roots of positive numbers will result in a positive number.
Square roots of negative numbers will result in a complex number. 

It is possible.

johnweldon1993 · Answer

You could even guesstimate it..

you know the square root of 121 is 11
you know the square root of 144 is 12

so since this number is between those 2....your answer will be between 11 and 12
