Have to use i² = - 1
√(- 5) = √(5 i²) = √5 i

A negative number can not have a square root bc a square root is a number multiplied by the same number gives you that certain number, but there are no two exact numbers that can give u -5. You get a negative number by multipling a negative times a positive n there for there is no square root of -5. A negative times a negative gives you a positive.

sqrt(-5) = sqrt(5i^2) = i sqrt(5).
You cannot compare -5 with sqrt(-5). The former is a real number, and the latter an imaginary one. Neither is greater or less than the other.
