Answer
$2i\sqrt{3}$
Work Step by Step
Using the properties of radicals and that $i=\sqrt{-1}$, then the given expression, $
\sqrt{-12}
,$ is equivalent to
\begin{array}{l}\require{cancel}
\sqrt{-1}\cdot\sqrt{12}
\\\\=
i\cdot\sqrt{4\cdot3}
\\\\=
i\cdot\sqrt{(2)^2\cdot3}
\\\\=
i\cdot2\sqrt{3}
\\\\=
2i\sqrt{3}
.\end{array}
