The imagnary number i

[Jubin]

What The f**k Is That

If you don't understand it just take it as a mere fact that imaginary number i is used in electrical engineering.

If u use Imaginary i u can calculate this:

-1 = 1

Sounds stupid, I'm only taking Geometry now, Algebra 2 is next year.

Im taking algebra 2 and I am having a hard time finding the purpose of imaginary numbers.  Do any of you guys need to use imaginary numbers? What are they used for other than another excuse to make people learn and fail.

That loled my out for a full 30 seconds.

But I think like a total random guess, thats its called an imaginairy number because it cant be higher then 0 or something because some cooks back in the days thought that was impossible so that would make an imaginairy number anumber that squared is less then or 0 so if lets say the z was a real number and the i is being an imaginairy number then iz would be an imaginairy number because of;

(¡*Z)²=¡²*z²=-y²= an amount smaller then 0.
