nice italic I there iamacow
the answer is "i" (imaginary number)
if it postive 1 then the answer would be 1 but since it is negitive the answer has to be an imaginary number. No number can be mutlplied by itself and have a negitive product.

1i = i
Imaginary numbers are nonexistant numbers that can be used in calculations to get back into the real zone. I'm not a math teacher and i'm not really good at math but it is something like that.

Sorry, i'm confused he asked us what the Square of -1 was? You don't need to do a Special Number for that, or anythign as silly, you can do it in your head. It becomes 1.
The Squareroot is a different matter, because till you are very good at maths they will tell you that you cannot Square root a Negative number, but you can, it just isn't nice to do.
