Introduction to Imaginary Numbers
• Thus far we have discussed numbers exclusively in the real number system
• Consider – Does not exist in the real number system

Introduction to Imaginary Numbers (Continued)
• Consider if we use the product rule to rewrite 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:

Introduction to Imaginary Numbers (Continued)
• A negative under an even root:– Does NOT exist in the real number system– DOES exist in the complex number system
• A negative under an odd root:– ONLY exists in the real number system

Multiply and Divide Square Roots with Imaginary Numbers
![Page 9: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Multiply and Divide Square Roots with Imaginary Numbers
• First step is to ALWAYS “poke out the i”WRONG
CORRECT
• After “poking out the i” use the product or quotient rule 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

Definition of Complex Numbers
• Complex Number: a number written in the format a + bi where:– a and b are real numbers– a is the real part– bi is the imaginary part
![Page 13: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Addition and Subtraction of 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 2 complex numbers– Distribute the negative to the second complex
number– Treat as adding complex numbers

Multiplication of Complex Numbers
![Page 17: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

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
![Page 22: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Complex Conjugate
• Consider (3 + i)(3 – i)– What do you notice?
• 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)?
![Page 23: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
Division of Complex Numbers
• Goal is to write the quotient of complex numbers in the format a + bi– 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

Powers of i
![Page 29: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Powers of i
• So far we have discussed two powers of i:i
i2 = -1
• We can use these to obtain subsequent powers of i:
i3 = i2 · i = -i
i4 = i3 · i = -i · i = -i2 = 1
![Page 30: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Powers of i (Continued)
• Of course we don’t have to stop there:i5 = i4 · i = 1 · i = i
i6 = i5 · i = i · i = i2 = -1
i7 = i6 · i = -1 · i = -i
i8 = i7 · i = -i · i = -i2 = 1
:– Notice the pattern?
![Page 31: Complex Numbers MATH 017 Intermediate Algebra S. Rook.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081519/56649f275503460f94c3e481/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Powers of i (Continued)
• Thus, there are only 4 distinct powers of i i, i2 = -1, i3 = -I, i4 = 1
• Knowing this, we can derive ANY power of i– Divide the power by 4
• The quotient represents how many complete cycles we would need to go through
• The remainder represents the power of i in the next cycle0 i4
