Imaginary Numbers
• In the real number system, recall that a value under a radical must be greater than or equal to 0– Otherwise the value is non-real
• Consider if we decomposed and rewrote it as
– This step is called “poking out the i”– We know how to evaluate
• Imaginary unit: – Thus, – Any number with an i is called an imaginary number– Also by definition:

Multiplying and Dividing Imaginary Numbers
• First step is to ALWAYS “poke out the i”WRONG
CORRECT
• After “poking out the i” use the product or quotient rule for radicals on the REAL roots:– After checking whether the REAL roots can be
simplified of course– Only acceptable to have i in the final answer – • i2 can be simplified to -1

Complex Numbers
• Complex Number: a number written in the standard format a + bi where:– a and b are real numbers– a is the real part– bi is the imaginary part
• The set of real numbers along with the set of imaginary numbers comprises the set of complex numbers– i.e. a complex number is exclusively real when b = 0
and exclusively imaginary when a = 0

Adding & Subtracting Complex Numbers
• To add complex numbers:– Add the real parts– Add the imaginary parts– The real and imaginary parts cannot be combined
any further• To subtract two complex numbers:– Distribute the negative to the second complex
number– Treat as adding complex numbers

Adding & Subtracting Complex Numbers (Example)
Ex 2: Add or subtract and write the result in standard form:
a) (5 + i) + (6 – 2i)
b) 13i – (14 – 7i)

Multiplication of Complex Numbers

Multiplication of Complex Numbers
• To multiply 3i · 2i:– Multiply the real numbers first: 6– Multiply the i s: i · i = i2
3i · 2i = 6i2 = -6• Remember that it is only acceptable to leave i in the
final answer
• To multiply complex numbers in general– Use the distributive property or FOIL

Division of Complex Numbers

Complex Conjugate
• Consider (3 + i)(3 – i)– What is noticeable?
• Complex conjugate: the same complex number with real parts a and imaginary part bi except with the opposite sign– Very similar to conjugates when we discussed
rationalizing– What would be the complex conjugate of (2 – i)?

Division of Complex Numbers
• Goal is to write the quotient of complex numbers in the standard format a + bi
• To divide complex numbers:– Multiply the numerator and denominator by the complex
conjugate of the denominator (dealing with an expression)– The numerator simplifies to a complex number– The denominator simplifies to a single real number– Divide the denominator into each part of the numerator
and write the result in a + bi format
