Imaginary Unit i
𝒊 = −𝟏 so 𝒊 𝟐
= −𝟏
For any positive real number x, −𝒙 =
𝒊 𝒙.
Example: Write each imaginary number in
terms of i
a. −25
b. −13
c. −12
d. −20
e. − −16

REVIEW:
• −1 raised to an EVEN power is 1.
• −1 raised to an ODD power is −1.
• 𝒊 𝟐

FACT:
Look for a Pattern
• 𝒊 𝟏 = ( −𝟏) 𝟏= 𝒊
• 𝒊 𝟐
= ( −𝟏) 𝟐
= −𝟏
• 𝒊 𝟑 = 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 = −𝟏 ∙ 𝒊 = −𝒊
• 𝒊 𝟒
= 𝒊 𝟐
∙ 𝒊 𝟐
= −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 = 𝟏
• 𝒊 𝟓 = 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 = −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 ∙ 𝒊 = 𝒊
• 𝒊 𝟔 = 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 = −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 = −𝟏
• 𝒊 𝟕 = 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 = −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 ∙ 𝒊 = −𝒊
• 𝒊 𝟖 = 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 ∙ 𝒊 𝟐 = −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 ∙ −𝟏 = 𝟏
Math Box
Power of i
If n is a natural number that has a
nonzero remainder of r when divided by 4,
then
𝒊 𝒏
= 𝒊 𝒓
When n is divisible by 4, then 𝒊 𝒏
= 𝟏.
Simplify the following:
a. 𝒊 𝟐𝟗
b. 𝒊 𝟐𝟎
c. 𝒊 𝟒𝟕
d. 𝒊 𝟓𝟏
e. 𝒊 𝟗𝟗

COMPLEX NUMBER
• Using i, the real numbers, and the operations of
addition, subtraction, multiplication and
division, we obtain numbers that can be written
in the form a + bi, where a and b are real
numbers.
• A combination of a real number and an
imaginary number is called complex number.

Two complex numbers are equal if, and only if, both
their real terms and their imaginary terms are equal
Determine a and b such that the
complex numbers are equal.
• 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖 = 6 + 11𝑖
𝒂 = 𝟔; 𝒃 = 𝟏𝟏
• −5 + 𝑏𝑖 = 𝑎 + 9𝑖
𝒂 = −𝟓; 𝒃 = 𝟗
• 𝑎 + 3 − 8𝑖 = 4 + 2𝑏𝑖
𝑎 + 3 = 4; 2𝑏 = −8
𝒂 = 𝟏; 𝒃 = −𝟒

Multiplication of Complex Numbers
• 𝑎 𝑏 = 𝑎𝑏, for all POSITIVE
RADICANDS only.
• 𝑎 𝑏 ≠ 𝑎𝑏, for all NEGATIVE
RADICANDS.
Example: Find the product of the
following radicals.
• −2 ∙ −5
• −16 ∙ −25
• −5 ∙ −7
• −3𝑖 ∙ 8𝑖
• 4𝑖 3 − 5𝑖
• (1 + 2𝑖)(1 + 3𝑖)
Major Mistake Territory!
To avoid mistakes, always
put complex numbers in the
form a + bi before doing any
computation.

Conjugates and Division
Conjugate of a Complex Number
•The conjugate of a complex
number a + bi is a – bi, and the
conjugate of a - bi is a + bi.
Find the conjugate of each complex
