$\big(\sqrt{-2}\big)\big(\sqrt{-3}\big)$ is equal to:
  • A
    $\sqrt{6}$
  • B
    $-\sqrt{6}$
  • C
    $\text{i}\sqrt{6}$

    none of these.

Answer

  1. $-\sqrt{6}$

Solution:

$\sqrt{-2}\times\sqrt{-3}$

$=\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{-1}\times\sqrt{-1}$

$=\sqrt{6}\times\text{i}\times\text{i}$

$=\sqrt{6}\times\text{i}^2$

$=-\sqrt{6} \ [\because\text{i}^2=-1]$
