Full solution

Q. Write 90 \sqrt{-90} in simplest radical form.\newlineAnswer:
  1. Express as product: Express 90\sqrt{-90} as the product of square roots and 1\sqrt{-1}.90=1×90=1×90\sqrt{-90} = \sqrt{-1 \times 90} = \sqrt{-1} \times \sqrt{90}
  2. Use imaginary unit: Express 1\sqrt{-1} as the imaginary unit ii.\newline1=i\sqrt{-1} = i
  3. Simplify by factoring: Simplify 90\sqrt{90} by factoring out perfect squares.90\sqrt{90} = 9×10\sqrt{9 \times 10} = 9\sqrt{9} ×\times 10\sqrt{10} = 3×103 \times \sqrt{10}
  4. Combine for complex number: Combine the results to express 90\sqrt{-90} as a complex number.90=i×3×10=3i×10=3i10\sqrt{-90} = i \times 3 \times \sqrt{10} = 3i \times \sqrt{10} = 3i \sqrt{10}
