Topics in Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations

1

Introduction to Complex Numbers

  • Complex numbers were introduced to solve equations like x² = -1
  • The imaginary unit i is defined as i² = -1
  • Every complex number can be written as z = a + bi where a, b are real numbers
2

Algebra of Complex Numbers

  • Addition: (a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i
  • Subtraction: (a + bi) - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i
  • Multiplication: (a + bi)(c + di) = (ac - bd) + (ad + bc)i
3

Powers of i

  • i¹ = i, i² = -1, i³ = -i, i⁴ = 1
  • The pattern repeats every 4 powers
  • For any integer k: i^(4k) = 1, i^(4k+1) = i, i^(4k+2) = -1, i^(4k+3) = -i
4

Square Roots of Negative Numbers

  • √(-a) = i√a for positive real number a
  • The principal square root of -1 is i
  • √(-a) × √(-b) = -√(ab) when both a and b are positive (different from positive case)
