Problems from Operations with complex numbers in binomic form

Let's calculate:

  1. (3+2i)+(82i)
  2. (3+2i)(82i)
See development and solution

Development:

  1. (3+2i)+(82i)=(3+8)+(2+(2))i=11+0i=11

    We have added the real parts (3+8) and we have added the imaginary parts (2+(2)). This last component is zero and therefore the solution is a real number.

  2. (3+2i)(82i)=(38)+(2(2))i=5+(2+2)i=5+4i

    We substract real parts (38) and the imaginary parts (2(2)). The real part result is 5 and the imaginary part result is 4.

Solution:

  1. 11
  2. 5+4i

Solve the following operations:

  1. (36i)(1+2i)=
  2. (2+i)(2+3i)(46i)=
See development and solution

Development:

  1. With the formula of the product of complex numbers in binomic form: (36i)(1+2i)=(31+62)+(3261)i=(3+12)+(66)i=15+0i=15
  2. We will first do the product of the first two complex numbers and then multiply the result by the third complex number.

    (2+i)(2+3i)=(2231)+(23+12)i=1+8i

    (1+8i)(46i)=(148(6))+(84+1(6))and==4+48+(326)i=52+26i

Solution:

  1. 15
  2. 52+26i

  1. Give the conjugate and the opposite of the following complex numbers: 14i, 95i.
  2. Calculate (11+29i):(2+3i)=
See development and solution

Development:

  1. z=14i{z¯=1(4)i=1+4iz=(14i)=1+4i

    The first one corresponds to the conjugate and the second one to the opposite complex number. z=95i{z¯=9(5)i=9+5iz=(95i)=9+5i

    The same as in the previous lines.

  2. Now, multiplying by the conjugate of 2+3i (which is 23i) we have: 11+29i2+3i=11+29i2+3i23i23i We do both products: 11+29i2+3i23i23i=(112293)+(113+292)i22+32 Joining terms and adding: (112293)+(113+292)i22+32=65+91i4+9 If we separate the fraction in two terms we obtain: 11+29i2+3i=6513+9113i Simplified, that will be: 11+29i2+3i=6513+9113i=5+7i

Solution:

  1. For the first one:

    z¯=1(4)i=1+4i

    z=(14i)=1+4i

    For the second one:

    z¯=9(5)i=9+5i

    z=(95i)=9+5i

  2. 5+7i
