Day 7

Spaced Revision

Come back to Complex Numbers and De Moivre’s Theorem after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • A complex number is written as \(a + bi\), where \(i = \sqrt{-1}\).
  • Real part: \(a\), Imaginary part: \(b\).
  • Real numbers and purely imaginary numbers are special cases of complex numbers.
  • Powers of \(i\) repeat every 4: \(i, -1, -i, 1\).
  • To find \(i^n\), divide \(n\) by 4 and use the remainder.
  • Conjugate: change the sign of the imaginary part.
  • Conjugate of a real number is itself.
  • Conjugate of a purely imaginary number is its negative.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The imaginary unit 'i' is just a symbol like 'x', so √(-1) × √(-1) = √1 = 1.

The conjugate of a complex number is obtained by changing the sign of the real part.

The modulus of a complex number z = a + bi is |a| + |b|.

Memory Tips

Definition of complex number: z = a + bi

i² = -1

Powers of i cycle every 4: i¹=i, i²=-1, i³=-i, i⁴=1

Conjugate of z = a + bi is a - bi
