Q: Find the value of z if z^2 = -16.
Solution:
Taking square root, z = ±√(-16) = ±4i.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Start with the equation z^2 = -16.
Step 2: To find z, we need to take the square root of both sides.
Step 3: When taking the square root of -16, we can rewrite it as √(-16).
Step 4: Since the square root of a negative number involves 'i' (the imaginary unit), we can express it as √(16) * √(-1).
Step 5: We know that √(16) = 4 and √(-1) = i.
Step 6: Therefore, √(-16) = 4i.
Step 7: Since we have both positive and negative roots, we write z = ±4i.
