Real World Examples Utilizing complex numbers Fractals: never-ending pattern. Fractals are infinitely complex patterns that are self-similar across different scales. They are created by repeating a simple process over and over in an ongoing feedback loop. They are in nature.
Academic language Imaginary unit i: 𝑖= −1 so 𝑖 2 =−1. Complex number: a number 𝑎+𝑏𝑖 where 𝑎 and 𝑏 are real numbers and 𝑖 is the imaginary unit. Imaginary number: a complex number 𝑎+𝑏𝑖 where 𝑏≠0.
Academic language Complex conjugates: two complex numbers of the form 𝑎+𝑏𝑖 and 𝑎−𝑏𝑖. Complex plane: a coordinate plane in which each point (a, b) represents a complex number 𝑎+𝑏𝑖. The horizontal axis is the real axis and the vertical axis is the imaginary axis. Absolute value of a complex number: if z =𝑎+𝑏𝑖 then the absolute value of z, denoted 𝑧 = √( 𝑎 2 + 𝑏 2 ) .
