Just by knowing the first 4 you can evaluate i to any power Think about it….
Complex Numbers have both real and imaginary parts; in the form a+bi (standard form) If b≠0, a+bi is an imaginary number If b=0, a+bi is a real number If a=0, a+bi is a pure imaginary number
Two complex numbers a+bi and c+di, written in standard form, are equal to each other a+bi=c+di if and only if a=c and b=d
Operations with Complex Numbers Addition and Subtraction of Complex Numbers • Sum: (a+bi) + (c+di)=(a+c) + (b+d)i • Difference: (a+bi) - (c+di)=(a-c) + (b-d)i
Let’s Try Some (3-i) + (2+3i) 2i + (-4 - 2i) 3 – (-2+3i) + (-5 +i) (3+2i) + (4 - i) – (7+i)
Multiplying Complex Numbers 4(-2+3i) (i)(-3i) (2-i)(4+3i) (3+2i)(3-2i) (3+2i)2
Complex Conjugates and Division a+bi and a-bi are complex conjugates; their product is a real number Multiply numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate
