Given:


√(-1.21)

You need to remember this property for Radicals:


\sqrt[n]{b^n}=b

You know that:


121=11\cdot11=11^2

Therefore, you can conclude that:


1.21=1.1^2

Hence, you can rewrite the expression as follows:


=\sqrt[]{-(1.1)^2}

By definition:


\sqrt[]{-1}=i

Then, you can rewrite it as:


=1.1i

Therefore, it is an Imaginary Root.

Hence, the answer is: Last option.
