\sqrt[]{21}\text{ i}

Step-by-step explanation

remember that:


\begin{gathered} i^2=-1 \\ so \\ √(i^2)=√(-1) \\ i=\sqrt[]{-1} \end{gathered}

also


\sqrt[]{ab}=\sqrt[]{a}\sqrt[]{b}

then

Step 1

apply the properties and defiition of i

so


\begin{gathered} \sqrt[]{-21} \\ \sqrt[]{-21}=\sqrt[]{-1\cdot21} \\ \sqrt[]{-21}=\sqrt[]{-1}\sqrt[]{21} \\ \sqrt[]{-21}=i\sqrt[]{21} \\ \sqrt[]{-21}=\sqrt[]{21}i\text{ } \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is


\sqrt[]{21}\text{ i}

I hope this helps you
