You know how square roots work, right. Well, then you know that it's impossible for there to be a square root of a negative number. Imaginary numbers are a way to explain how impossible equations have answers.

It's a number that's not technically possible, and it usually involves the square root of a negative prime number. For example, the square root of -1 is impossible because a negative multiplied by a negative will never equal a negative. The square root of -1 is commonly used as the letter "i" to simplify things. So the square root of -5 can be simplified by stating it as "i times the square root of 5." It's hard to explain, and it's pretty hard to understand, but you will probably have to work with them at some point in time or another, so there you go.

Hey !!

I am pretty sure that Imaginary numbers are numbers that contain a square root of negative numbers, or a zero...
Hope I helped :)

Imaginary numbers are numbers that have a square root of a negative number or zero. They aren't real but yet again, they are. It's sort of hard to explain this but if you go to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and search for imaginary numbers, you can find out more information.
