(Division of Complex Numbers)
To divide complex numbers, we write the division as a fraction,
then multiply the top and the bottom of the fraction by the
conjugate of the denominator.
3 – 2i
4 + 3i
Example F. Simplify
Multiply the conjugate of the denominator (4 – 3i) to the top
and the bottom.
(3 – 2i)
(4 + 3i)
=
(4 – 3i)

Complex Numbers
In what sense are the complex numbers, numbers?
Real numbers are physically measurable quantities (or the
lack of such quantities in the case of the negative numbers).
Theoretically, we can forever improve upon the construction of
a stick with length exactly 2. But how do we make a stick of
length 3i, or a cookie that weighs 3i oz? Well, we can’t.
Imaginary numbers and complex numbers in general are not
physically measurable in the traditional sense. Only the real
numbers, which are a part of the complex numbers, are
tangible in the traditional sense.
Complex numbers are directional measurements.
They keep track of measurements and directions,
i.e. how much and in what direction (hence the two–
component form of the complex numbers).
Google the terms “complex numbers, 2D vectors” for further
information.

Quadratic Formula and Complex Numbers x = –b +b2 – 4ac 2a x = –b –b2 – 4ac 2a and If a, b, and c are real numbers, then the complex roots* for ax2 + bx + c = 0 are a complex conjugates pair. ( * if b2 – 4ac < 0). From example G, the solutions of 2x2 – 2x + 3 = 0 are x = 1 + i5 2 For example, if x = i is a solution of #x2 + # x + # = 0, then automatically x = – i is the other root (# real numbers.) x = 1 – i5 2 and In general, for ax2 + bx + c = 0 with a, b, and c real numbers, and b2 – 4ac < 0, then its two roots: because b2 – 4ac = –20 < 0. are of the form A + Bi and A – Bi, a conjugate pair. Therefore we have a complex conjugate pair as solutions.
  • 81. Complex Numbers In what sense are the complex numbers, numbers? Real numbers are physically measurable quantities (or the lack of such quantities in the case of the negative numbers). Theoretically, we can forever improve upon the construction of a stick with length exactly 2. But how do we make a stick of length 3i, or a cookie that weighs 3i oz? Well, we can’t. Imaginary numbers and complex numbers in general are not physically measurable in the traditional sense. Only the real numbers, which are a part of the complex numbers, are tangible in the traditional sense. Complex numbers are directional measurements. They keep track of measurements and directions, i.e. how much and in what direction (hence the two– component form of the complex numbers). Google the terms “complex numbers, 2D vectors” for further information.
