How Imaginary Numbers Were Invented

Mathematics began as a way to quantify our world, to measure land,
predict the motions of planets, and keep track of commerce.
Then came a problem considered impossible.
The secret to solving it was to separate math from the real world, to split algebra from geometry and to invent new numbers so fanciful they are called imaginary.
Ironically, 400 years later, these very numbers turn up in the heart of our best physical theory of the universe
