What is i to the power of 3?

The expression i³ refers to the imaginary unit raised to the third power. Recall that i is defined as the square root of -1.

To calculate i³, we can utilize the property of powers of i:

• i¹ = i
• i² = -1
• i³ = i² * i = -1 * i = -i
• i⁴ = 1 (and the cycle repeats)

Therefore, the result of i³ is -i.
