COMPLEX NUMBERS
1. INTRODUCTION :
Indian mathematician Mahavira (850 A.D.) was first to mention in his work 'Ganitasara Sangraha' As in nature of
things a negative (quantity) is not a square (quantity), it has, therefore, no square root. Hence there is no real
number ' x ' which satisfies the polynomial equation x 2 1 0 .
T o s o l v e t h e p r o b l e m we extend the system of real numbers to a system of numbers which will supply us
with a root of the above equation.
For such extension, let us take recourse to the points of the plane. With an origin (0, 0) and suitably chosen x-axis
and y-axis, we denote a point on the plane by (a, b). By virtue of Cantor-Dedekind axiom, we are free to make no
distinction between a real number and the point on the x-axis that represents it. So, each real number a is now of
the form (a, 0). Thus, we arrive at the threshold of getting an extension of the system of real numbers.
To permit solutions of such polynomial equations, the set of complex numbers is introduced. We can consider a
complex number as having the form a ib where a and b are real number.
It is denoted by z i.e. z a ib . ' a ' is called as real part of z which is denoted by Re(z) and 'b' is called as
imaginary part of z which is denoted by Im (z).
Hence, 0 0i is both a purely real as well as a purely imaginary but not imaginary.

Complex number
Note:
(a) The set R of real number is a proper subset of the Complex Numbers. Hence the complete number system is
W
(b) Zero is purely real as well as purely imaginary but not imaginary.

From (i) and (ii). we get x 2 and y 3,

Note : Inequality in complex numbers are never talked. If x1 iy1 x2 iy2 has to be meaningful y1 y2 0 .
Equalities however in complex numbers are meaningful. Two complex numbers z1 and z2 are said to be equal if
Re z1 Re z2 and Im z1 Im z2 (i.e. they occupy the same position on complex plane)
Page 5 of 41
2.2 Addition :
z1 z2 ( x1 iy1 ) (x 2 iy2 ) x1 x2 i y1 y2 C.
It is easy to observe that the sum of two complex numbers is a complex number whose real (imaginary) part is
the sum of the real (imaginary) parts of the given numbers:
2.3 Subtraction :
z1 z2 ( x1 iy1 ) (x 2 iy2 ) x1 - x2 i y1 - y2 C.
That is Re z1 z2 Re z1 Re z2 ;
Im z1 z2 Im z1 Im z2 .
2.4 Multiplication :
z1.z2 x1 iy1 x2 iy2 x1 x2 y1 y2 i x1 y2 x2 y1 C
.z x iy x i y C
is the product of a real number with a complex number. The following properties are obvious :
(a) z1 z2 z1 z2
(b) 2 z 12 z;
Actually, relations (a) and (c) are special cases of the distributive law and relation (b) comes from the associative
law of multiplication for complex numbers.
z1 x1 iy1
x iy1 x2 iy2

Then

3. THREE IMPORTANT TERMS WITH RESPECT TO COMPLEX NUMBER :
3.1 Conjugate of Complex Number :
Conjugate of a complex number z a ib is denoted and defined by z a ib .
In a complex number if we replace i by i , we get conjugate of the complex number, z is the mirror image of z
about real axis on Argand's Plane.
If z C the

If z1 , z2 C then

z2 z2
(v) z1 .z2 z1 . z2
x 2 y 2 is called modulus (or) absolute value of the complex number z x iy is denoted by z (or) r
Note:
(i) z z z z x 2 y 2
(ii) Modulus of a complex number is the distance of the point x , y from origin in argand plane.

Note :
(i) | z | 0 .
(ii) All complex numbers having the same modulus lie on a circle with centre as origin and radius r | z | .

3.3 Argument of Complex Number :
Angle made by the line segment joining the point on the complex plane representing the complex
number z to the origin from the positive real axis is called argument of complex number z which is
denoted as arg z
e.g. If z 1 i, i 1 then arg z

Note that by specifying the modulus and argument, a complex number is completely defined. However for the
complex number 0 + 0 i the argument is not defined and this is the only complex number which is completely
defined by talking in terms of its modulus, i.e., | z | 0 .

Case III: If z lies in III quadrant i.e. a 0, b 0
then amp z
Note :
(i) If z is purely real positive complex number then amp z 0 .
(ii) If z is purely imaginary positive complex number then amp z .

55. An equation of the form ax bx c, a 0 is called quadratic equation in variable x, where a, b and c are numbers
2
b b 2 4ac
(real or complex). The roots of quadratic equation ax bx c 0, a 0 are
2
and
2a
b b 2 4ac
Now, if we look at these roots of quadratic equation ax bx c 0; a 0, we observe that
2
2a
the roots depend upon the value of the quantity b2 4ac. This quantity is known as the discriminant of the quadratic
equation and denoted by D. There are following cases :
b
Case I If b 4ac 0, I.e. D 0, then
2
. Thus, if b2 - 4ac = 0, then the quadratic equation has real and
2a
equal roots and each equal to b / 2 a.
Case II If a, b and e are rational numbers and b2 4ac 0 and it is a perfect square, then D b2 4ac is a rational
number and hence and are rational and unequal.
Case III If b2 4ac 0 and it is not a perfect square, then roots are irrational and unequal.
Case IV If b 4ac 0, then the roots are complex conjugate of each other. Based on above information, answer the
