Simple operations with complex numbers
Complex numbers can be combined using the four fundamental operations
(
+-*/
). The results follow the rules of algebra with the caveat that
i
2
= -1
. Operations with complex numbers are similar to those with real
numbers. For example, with the calculator in ALG mode and the CAS set to
Complex
, we’ll attempt the following sum: (3+5i) + (6-3i):
Notice that the real parts (3+6) and imaginary parts (5-3) are combined
together and the result given as an ordered pair with real part 9 and
imaginary part 2. Try the following operations on your own:
(5-2i) - (3+4i) = (2,-6)
(3-i)(2-4i) = (2,-14)
(5-2i)/(3+4i) = (0.28,-1.04)
1/(3+4i) = (0.12, -0.16)
Notes:
The product of two numbers is represented by: (x

The division of two complex numbers is accomplished by multiplying both
numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator,

Changing sign of a complex number
Changing the sign of a complex number can be accomplished by using the
\
key, e.g., -(5-3i) = -5 + 3i
