in complex j2=-1 so j equals square root of -1
3
Square root ( 1) = +/-1 Remember -1 X -1 = (+)1 +1 x +1 = (+)1 So the square root of (+)1 can be either (+)1 or (-)1 However, do NOT confuse with the 'square root (-1)' . Mathematicians for centuries have been pondering over this problem, and still no answer!!!!!
The square root of -1 is i, or j sometimes, if you are an engineer.Therefore it can be rewritten as 3i.
=i(1.73205) where i is the square root of -1 in electrical and electronic engineering the the square root of -1 is generally referred to as 'j' as i usually denotes current.
Actually a negative number can be under a square root symbol. This becomes very useful in electrical calculations. The square root of -1 is j. That is, j2 = -1.
The square root of -1 is "i". However engineers use "j", but it's essentially the same thing.
[ sqrt(-25) / sqrt(9) ] - [ sqrt(-1) ] = j5/3 - j1 = j 2/3

K j equals j when K is 1 or j is 0.
It is the imaginary unit, expressed as i (j for all you physicists) and is used in non-real answers and such
The canonical example is the square root of -1. Mathematicians use the symbol i to represent it, electrical engineers use j because i is already busy.
