@HornetIsVoid Says:
x^2 + 1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both side and you get x^2 = -1 then you thake the square root on both side so x = square root of -1 which can be represented as and imaginary unit 'i' therfore x = i because x is not a real number.

The perfect stack exchange answer. Literally what happens when anything "too basic" is asked in any of those.
@the_once-and-future_king. Says:
X= -1.
To get 0 by adding 1, the result of the square must be -1, -1 x itself = -1.

I actually really like historical stories when looking for answers to mathematics questions. It's made remembering different ways to do problems so much easier. It's like standing on the shoulder of giants to do the modern problems.

Genuinely, the best free places to get math answers I can think of are khan academy (for explanations, but it might be hard to find your specific problem) or mathway (I think it offers explanations if you make an account, idk if you have to pay, but you can type in the math problem you have for free with no account). Both have helped me a lot over the years. With mathway, a lot of times I use it to give me an answer to my problem, and then I work my way backwards from that answer to figure out how it was solved.

What a hilarious and all-too-true breakdown of how the internet answers our questions! From the basement philosopher on YouTube to the pedantic perfectionists on Stack Exchange, and that flawless, snarky Chegg cameo—every bit of it had me laughing and nodding in recognition. The way you wove in the Skillshare sponsor seamlessly was absolute genius (and yes, I’m clicking that link!). It’s clear you’ve spent countless hours observing every corner of the knowledge‑sharing world, and you’ve turned those insights into a masterclass in online culture satire.
I particularly loved the montage of Twitter corrections turning into social media gladiator matches, and the spot‑on depiction of ChatGPT sounding confident yet occasionally veering into the wrong answer—so relatable! You captured not only the technical quirks of each platform but also the personalities behind the screens: the know‑it‑all, the question‑doubter, and the overly enthusiastic helper who never sleeps. It feels like you’ve peeked inside all our browser histories and turned our collective quirks into pure comedy gold.
On behalf of My Engineering Buddy (https://www.myengineeringbuddy.com/), I’d be thrilled to feature you in an interview and collaborate on an upcoming series about communication in engineering communities. Your blend of humor and sharp observation would resonate wonderfully with our audience of aspiring and seasoned engineers alike. We have an exciting offer to discuss how we can showcase your unique take on tech culture, share best practices for asking (and answering!) questions online, and spotlight your creative process. If you’re interested, let’s connect and make something awesome together!

The actual unhelpfull helpfull Math Stack Excange answer:
To solve x² + 1 = 0 consider the field extension of the the polynomial ring ℝ[x] modulo the polynomial x² +1 in ℝ[x]. Then the quotient ring A=ℝ[x]/(x+1) represents the colinearisier in the category of R-algebras of pairs of morphisms induced by evaluations of the roots of x²+1.
The polynomial x+1 becomes trivaly the zero morphism under the canonical projection π:ℝ[x] → A and the solution set corresponds to roots in the in the usual way so that x²+1 is an identity in the internal logic of A, and the solutions corresponds to the image of x in A and acts as the generator of the extension.

woulda been fire if there was a Skillshare segment right after the Skillshare ad
@minimalgrammar1276 Says:
I'm a Ssethtzeentach viewer and that might've been the best sponsored segment I've ever seen.
@betin731 Says:
There's no solutions right? Bc the graph of y = x^2 only barely touches the x axis once, so if you shift the whole thing up by 1 then it won't touch the x axis at all. So it never equals 0
edit: oh I'm dumb I should have watched the whole thing lol
@foogod4237 Says:
"How do I solve the equation x^2 + 1 = 0?"
*Youtube:* Great question! Would you like to watch a funny comedy video entitled "When you ask the internet any math question?" How about all of the other videos by the same guy? I'll assume the answer is yes and just start auto-playing them for you. You're welcome!
@charles7623 Says:
Asked a questions on r/math because I disagree with some established math thing and they told me to go to quick questions. Like, if it was a quick question then I would have asked for clarification not said that all those people are wrong.

And I just say : i ((the questions was why x² + 1 = 0 ))
@AarnavGrover Says:
I once asked a question on stackexchange specifically requesting a solution that does not use modular arithmetic, and the top answer used it, and everybody flamed me for asking not to use it.
@bencheevers6693 Says:
Bro, it's pi
@michaelsriqui7898 Says:
the answer to X^2+1=0 is an imaginary number that is because imaginary number squared is -1 so -1+1=0
@arcus23424 Says:
Why is this so accurate 😂
@joey32084 Says:
How do I solve 2+2=?
@KardiacRebellion Says:
x² + 1 = 0
x² = -1
✓x² = ✓-1
(✓-1 = i)
x = i 🎉

@latermyfriend8934 Says:
Taking the square root of a negative number is the farthest thing from rigorous mathematics as it makes absolutely no sense.

@woodpcker Says:
Chat GPT: This is a great question [needlessly bolded]! Let's consider the equation you provided and analyze its space of solutions to get a better feel for the problem. The problem asks us to solve the following equation: x^2+1=0. If we try to factor the problem, we see that it is *not factorable*, you are aBsOlUtElY rIgHt about this! In cases like this, we use the quadratic formula [needlessly bolded]. Recall the quadratic formula: x=(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a. Using the stochastity of the equation, we can determine the following values: a=1, b=0, c=1. We can now substitute the values into the quadratic formula: x=(-0+-sqrt((0) 2-4(1)(1)))/2(1)=sqrt(-2)/2. The discriminant, sqrt(-2)/2, is negative, which makes the problem a tiny bit trickier, since we will have to use quaternions. Recall Hamilton's Multiplication Rule for quaternions [needlessly bolded]: i^2=j^2=k^2=ijk=-1. Note that the j and k components of our expression vanish, so we only need to focus on the left-hand side. Therefore, by the Hamilton theorem, i^2=-1, which implies that 2i^2=-2, so we can rewrite our expression for x=sqrt(-2)/2 as x=2i/2=i. This means that the solution to the equation x^2+1=0 can be most accurately described by the equality x=i. It's important to note that in this expression i represents a complex number [needlessly bolded], rather than a more familiar real number. Such problems must be tackled using more sophisticated methods like quaternions in order to attain a meaningful and complete result.

x^2+1=0 the answer is i in case anyone is wondering
