Rewriting Roots (Level 3)

This math topic focuses on advanced manipulation of complex numbers, specifically the skill of rewriting square roots that contain negative radicands into complex number expressions. Students are encouraged to simplify such expressions and manage radicals effectively, integrating both imaginary units and variable exponents. The problems involve interpreting and transforming complex algebraic structures that include powers and roots into their simplified complex forms. This is an advanced exercise aimed at deepening understanding of complex numbers and their properties in the context of algebra.
