how  i^(2) = -1 let i = (-1)^(1/2)     =(3-4)^(1/2)     = {[(3-4)^(2)]^(0.5)}^(0.5)      ={[(9+16-24)^(0.5)]^(0.5)      = {[(1)^(0.5)]^(0.5)      =(1)^0.5      =1....... then why cant we write i=1 ? then all imaginary number concept will be vanished
how  i^(2) = -1Â
let i = (-1)^(1/2)
    =(3-4)^(1/2)
    = {[(3-4)^(2)]^(0.5)}^(0.5)
     ={[(9+16-24)^(0.5)]^(0.5)
     = {[(1)^(0.5)]^(0.5)
     =(1)^0.5
     =1.......

Hello student,Please find the answer to your question belowThe proof which you are showing is an analytical proofThese kind of proofs can be done in mathematics to show 2=1,2=5 etc,,,which are actually not true‘i’ actually represents a rotation of 90 degrees that is why we represent a complex number as (x,y) while plotting on graphso i2means i multiplied by i which makes the rotation 180 degrees so on a graph paper you can see that this 180 degree rotation makes magnitude negative.hencei2is treated as -1.
