False Proof of 1=-1 - Mathematics Stack Exchange 1 Indeed what you are proving is that in the complex numbers you don't have (in general) $$\sqrt {xy}=\sqrt {x}\sqrt {y}$$ Because you find a counterexample
Why is $1$ not a prime number? - Mathematics Stack Exchange 50 actually 1 was considered a prime number until the beginning of 20th century Unique factorization was a driving force beneath its changing of status, since it's formulation is quickier if 1 is not considered a prime; but I think that group theory was the other force
Why is $1 i$ equal to $-i$? - Mathematics Stack Exchange There are multiple ways of writing out a given complex number, or a number in general Usually we reduce things to the "simplest" terms for display -- saying $0$ is a lot cleaner than saying $1-1$ for example The complex numbers are a field This means that every non-$0$ element has a multiplicative inverse, and that inverse is unique While $1 i = i^ {-1}$ is true (pretty much by definition
