1. 3.4 Complex Numbers

2. To make it possible to solve all quadratic equations, mathematicians invented an expanded number system called the complex number system. They defined the new number:

3. Complex number A number in the form a + bi, where a is the real number part and bi is the imaginary number part. Pure imaginary number: 6i
