Complex Numbers
2
Complex does not mean complicated.
It means two types of numbers, real and imaginary,which together form a complex, just like a building complex (buildings joined together).
3
REAL NUMBERS & IMAGINARY NUMBERS
4
Real Numbers are numbers like:
Real Numbers are numbers like: Nearly any number you can think of is a Real Number! 1 12.38 −0.8625 3/4 √2 1998
5
Imaginary Numbers when squared give a negative result
when we square a positive number ,we get a positive result, and when we square a negative number, then also we get a positive result But Imagine, there is such a number, which when squared, gives a negative result Copyright © by Houghton Mifflin Company, Inc. All rights reserved.

The "unit" imaginary number is i, which is the square root of −1
Examples of Imaginary Numbers: 3i 1.04i −2.8i 3i/4 (√2)i 1998i 1 12.38 −0.8625 3/4 √2 1998

STANDARD FORM OF A COMPLEX NUMBER-
A Complex Number is a combination of a Real Number and an Imaginary Number

Examples of Comple Numbers
Examples of complex numbers: Real Part Imaginary Part a bi + 2 7i + 20 3i – Real Numbers: a + 0i Imaginary Numbers: 0 + bi Simplify: = i = 3i 1. = i = 8i 2. + 3. + i = a + bi form + i = Simplify using the product property of radicals. 4 + 5i = Examples of Comple Numbers
10
Add or Subtract Complex Numbers
To add or subtract complex numbers: 1. Write each complex number in the form a + bi. 2. Add or subtract the real parts of the complex numbers. 3. Add or subtract the imaginary parts of the complex numbers. (a + bi ) + (c + di ) = (a + c) + (b + d )i (a + bi ) – (c + di ) = (a – c) + (b – d )i Add or Subtract Complex Numbers
11
Adding Complex Numbers
Examples: Add (11 + 5i) + (8 – 2i ) = (11 + 8) + (5i – 2i ) Group real and imaginary terms. = i a + bi form Add ( ) + (21 – ) = (10 + i ) + (21 – i ) i = = ( ) + (i – i ) Group real and imaginary terms. = 31 a + bi form Adding Complex Numbers
12
Subtracting Complex Numbers
Examples: Subtract: (– i ) – (7 – 9i) = (– 21 – 7) + [(3 – (– 9)]i Group real and imaginary terms. = (– 21 – 7) + (3i + 9i) = – i a + bi form Subtract: ( ) – ( ) Group real and imaginary terms. = (11 + i ) – (6 + i ) = (11 – 6) + [ – ]i = (11 – 6) + [ 4 – 3]i = 5 + i a + bi form Subtracting Complex Numbers
13
Product of Complex Numbers
The product of two complex numbers is defined as: (a + bi)(c + di ) = (ac – bd ) + (ad + bc)i Use the FOIL ( First..Outer..Inner..Last ) method to find the product. 2. Replace i2 by – 1. 3. Write the answer in the form a + bi. Product of Complex Numbers
14
Examples: 1. = i i = 5i i = 5i2 = 5 (–1) = –5
15
The complex numbers a + bi and a - bi are called conjugates.
16
The product of conjugates is the real number a2 + b2.
(a + bi) (a – bi) = a2 – b2i2 = a2 – b2(– 1) = a2 + b2 Example: (5 + 2i) (5 – 2i) = (52 – 4i2) = 25 – 4 (–1) = 29 Product of Conjugates
17
Dividing Complex Numbers
A rational expression, containing one or more complex numbers, is in simplest form when there are no imaginary numbers remaining in the denominator. Example: Multiply the expression by . –1 Replace i2 by –1 and simplify. Write the answer in the form a + bi.
18
Simplify: Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of 2 + i. In 2 + i, a = 2 and b = 1. a2 + b2 = –1 Replace i2 by –1 and simplify. Write the answer in the form a + bi. Example: (5 +3i)/(2+i)

The Mandelbrot Set The beautiful Mandelbrot Set (pictured here) is based on Complex Numbers. It is a plot of what happens when we take the simple equation z2+c (both complex numbers) and feed the result back into z time and time again. The color shows how fast z2+c grows, and black means it stays within a certain range. Here is an image made by zooming into the Mandelbrot set
