Complex Numbers
What is a complex number
What is a complex number?
A complex number is a point on a two-dimensional real vector space Complex numbers z can be defined as ordered pairs
z = (x, y),
where x is called real part and y is called imaginary part and they are often denoted as
x = Re(z) y = Im(z),

What is a complex number?
A complex number is a point on a two-dimensional real vector space Complex numbers z can be defined as ordered pairs
z = (x, y),
where x is called real part and y is called imaginary part and they are often denoted as
x = Re(z) y = Im(z),
Two complex numbers (x 1 , y 1 ) and (x 2 , y 2 ) are said to be equal whenever x 1 = x 2 y 1 = y 2 ,
Properties of complex numbers
Let z 1 = (x 1 , y 1 ) and z 2 = (x 2 , y 2 ). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = (x 1 , y 1 ) + (x 2 , y 2 ) = (x 1 + x 2 , y 1 + y 2 ),
z 1 z 2 = (x 1 x 2 − y 1 y 2 , x 1 y 2 + x 2 y 1 ).
Properties of complex numbers
Let z 1 = (x 1 , y 1 ) and z 2 = (x 2 , y 2 ). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = (x 1 , y 1 ) + (x 2 , y 2 ) = (x 1 + x 2 , y 1 + y 2 ),
z 1 z 2 = (x 1 x 2 − y 1 y 2 , x 1 y 2 + x 2 y 1 ).
Then, (x, 0) + (0, y) = (x, y),
Properties of complex numbers
Let z 1 = (x 1 , y 1 ) and z 2 = (x 2 , y 2 ). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = (x 1 , y 1 ) + (x 2 , y 2 ) = (x 1 + x 2 , y 1 + y 2 ),
z 1 z 2 = (x 1 x 2 − y 1 y 2 , x 1 y 2 + x 2 y 1 ).
Then, (x, 0) + (0, y) = (x, y),
(0, 1)(y, 0) = (0, y)
(x, y) = (x, 0) + (0, 1)(y, 0)
Let z 1 = (x 1 , 0) and z 2 = (x 2 , 0). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = ( x ︸ 1 ︷︷+ x (^2) ︸

By sum and multiplication definitions of a complex number
(x, y) = (x, 0) + (0, 1)(y, 0)
Let z 1 = (x 1 , 0) and z 2 = (x 2 , 0). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = ( x ︸ 1 ︷︷+ x (^2) ︸

By sum and multiplication definitions of a complex number
(x, y) = (x, 0) + (0, 1)(y, 0)
Let z 1 = (x 1 , 0) and z 2 = (x 2 , 0). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = ( x ︸ 1 ︷︷+ x (^2) ︸

By sum and multiplication definitions of a complex number
(x, y) = (x, 0) + (0, 1)(y, 0)
Then, if we let i = (0, 1),
z = (x, y) = (x, 0) + (0, 1)(y, 0) =: x + iy,
Let z 1 = (x 1 , 0) and z 2 = (x 2 , 0). Then,
z 1 + z 2 = ( x ︸ 1 ︷︷+ x (^2) ︸

Then, if we let i = (0, 1),
z = (x, y) = (x, 0) + (0, 1)(y, 0) =: x + iy,
Show that i^2 = − 1
