The square root of anything negative is always the symbol i.
i will represent your negative. After taking out i, you can square root the number normally (the square root of 9 would be 3)
So in this way, your answer would be 3i. i is always written after your number because it is a variable.
Remember the square root of anything negative MUST have i!!!
