<p>The<a>square</a>root is the inverse of the square of the<a>number</a>. -10000 is a<a>negative number</a>, and square roots of negative numbers involve<a>imaginary numbers</a>. In mathematics, the square root of -10000 is expressed using the imaginary unit 'i', where i = √-1. Thus, the square root of -10000 is expressed as 100√-1, or 100i. This is an imaginary number because it cannot be represented on the<a>real number line</a>.</p>

<h3>Explanation</h3>
26
<p>The area of the square = side².</p>
25
<p>The area of the square = side².</p>
27
<p>The side length is given as √-400 = 20i.</p>
26
<p>The side length is given as √-400 = 20i.</p>
28
<p>Area of the square = side² = (20i)² = 400i².</p>
27
<p>Area of the square = side² = (20i)² = 400i².</p>
29
<p>Since i² = -1, the area is 400(-1) = -400 square units.</p>
28
<p>Since i² = -1, the area is 400(-1) = -400 square units.</p>
