Math I Day 10 ( ) UNIT QUESTION: What is a quadratic function? Standard: MM2A3, MM2A4 Today’s Question: How do we take the square root of negative numbers? Standard: MM2N1.a, b, c, d
You can't take the square root of a negative number, right? When we were young and still in Math I, no numbers that, when multiplied by themselves, gave us a negative answer. Squaring a negative number always gives you a positive. (-1)² = 1. (-2)² = 4 (-3)² = 9
So here’s what the math people did: They used the letter “i” to represent the square root of (-1). “i” stands for “imaginary” So, does really exist?
Examples of how we use
Ex: Solve x 2 + 6x +10 = 0 a = b = c = 1 st 2 nd
Complex Numbers A complex number has a real part & an imaginary part. Standard form is: Real part Imaginary part Example: 5+4i
The Complex Plane Imaginary Axis Real Axis
Graphing in the complex plane
Adding and Subtracting (add or subtract the real parts, then add or subtract the imaginary parts) Ex:
Graphing in the complex plane
Absolute Value of a Complex Number The distance the complex number is from the origin on the complex plane. If you have a complex number the absolute value can be found using:
