COMPLEX NUMBER

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 x2 + 1 = 0.
A symbol 1 , denoted by letter i was intrdouced by Swiss Mathematician, Leonhard Euler (1707-1783) in
1748 to provide solutions of equation x2 + 1 = 0. i was regarded as a fictitious or imaginary number which
could be manipulated algebrically like an ordinary real number, except that its square was – 1. The letter i was
used to denote 1 , possibly because i is the first letter of the Latin word 'imaginarius'.

DEFINITION
Complex numbers are definited as expressions of the form a + ib where a, b R & i = 1 . It is denoted by z i.e.
z = a + ib. ‘a’ is called as real part of z (Re z) and ‘b’ is called as imaginary part of z (Im z).

EVERY COMPLEX NUMBER CAN BE REGARDED AS

Purely real Purely imaginary Imaginary


if b = 0 if a = 0 if b  0

(A) The set R of real numbers is a proper subset of the Complex Numbers. Hence the complete
number system is N  W  I  Q  R  C.
(B) Zero is purely real as well as purely imaginary but not imaginary.

(C) i =  1 is called the imaginary unit.

Also i² =  1; i3 =  i ; i4 = 1 etc.

(D) a b = a b only if atleast one of a or b is non - negative.

(E) If z = a + ib, then a – ib is called complex conjugate of z and written as z = a – ib


(F) Real numbers satisfy order relations where as imaginary numbers do not satisfy order relations i.e.
i > 0, 3 + i < 2 are meaningless.

Ex. Write the following as complex number

(i) 16 (ii) x , (x > 0) (iii) –b + 4ac , (a, c> 0)

Sol. (i) 0 + 4i (ii) x + 0i (iii) –b + i 4ac

ALGEBRAIC OPERATIONS
Fundamental operations with complex numbers
In performing operations with complex numbers we can proceed as in the algebra of real numbers, replacing
i2 by – 1 when it occurs.
1. Addition (a + bi) + (c + di) = a + bi + c + di = (a + c) + (b + d) i
2. Subtraction (a + bi) – (c + di) = a + bi – c – di = (a – c) + (b – d) i
3. Multiplication (a + bi) (c + di) = ac + adi + bci + bdi2 = (ac – bd) + (ad+ bc)i

a  bi a  bi c  di ac  adi  bci  bdi 2


4. Division = . =
c  di c  di c  di c 2  d 2i2

ac  bd  (bc  ad)i ac  bd bc  ad
= = 2 2 + i
2
c d 2
c d c2  d 2

Inequalities in imaginary numbers are not defined. There is no validity if we say that imaginary number is
positive or negative.
e.g. z > 0, 4 + 2i < 2 + 4 i are meaningless.

In real numbers if a2 + b 2 = 0 then a = 0 = b however in complex numbers,


z12 + z22 = 0 does not imply z1 = z2 = 0.

(i) The algebraic operations on complex numbers are similar to those on real numbers treating i as a
polynomial.
(ii) Inequalities in complex numbers (non-real) are not defined. There is no validity if we say that complex
number (non-real) is positive or negative.
e.g. z > 0, 4 + 2i < 2 + 4i are meaningless.
(iii) In real numbers, if a2 + b2 = 0, then a = 0 = b but in complex numbers, z12 + z22 = 0 does not imply z1 = z2 = 0.

EQUALITY IN COMPLEX NUMBER

Two complex numbers z1 = a1 + ib1 & z2 = a2 + ib2 are equal if and only if their real and imaginary parts are equal
respectively
i.e. z 1 = z2  Re(z1) = Re(z2) and m (z1) = m (z2).

Sol. (2 + 3i)x2 – (3 – 2i)y = 2x – 3y + 5i

Ex. If x  5  2 4 , find the value of x4 + 9x3 + 35x2 – x + 4.

Sol. We have , x = –5 + 2 4
 x + 5 = 4i  (x + 5)2 = 16i2
 x2 + 10x + 25 = –16  x2 + 10x + 41 = 0

Now,
x4 + 9x3 + 35x2 – x + 4
 x2(x2 + 10x + 41) – x(x2 + 10x + 41) + 4(x2 + 10x + 41) – 160
 x2(0) – x(0) + 4(0) – 160
 –160

Ex. Find square root of 9 + 40i


Sol. Let x + iy = 9  40i
(x + iy)2 = 9 + 40i
 x 2 – y2 = 9 .....(i)
and xy = 20 ......(ii)

squaring (i) and adding with 4 times the square of (ii)


we get x4 + y4 – 2x2 y2 + 4x2 y2 = 81 + 1600
 (x2 + y2)2 = 1681
 x2 + y2 = 41 ......(iii)

from (i) + (iii) we get x2 = 25  x=±5


and y2 = 16  y=±4
from equation (ii) we can see that
x & y are of same sign
 x + iy = (5 + 4i) or – (5 + 4i)

GEOMETRICAL REPRESENTATION OF FUNDAMENTAL OPERATIONS


(i) Geometrical representation of addition.

z2

If two points P and Q represent complex numbers z1 and z2 respectively in the Argand plane, then the sum
z 1 + z 2 is represented by the extremity R of the diagonal OR of parallelogram OPRQ having
OP and OQ as two adjacent sides.

(ii) Geometric representation of substraction.

(iii) Modulus and argument of multiplication of two complex numbers.

Theorem For any two complex numbers z1, z2 we have |z 1 z2| = |z1| |z 2| and arg (z1z2) = arg (z1) + arg (z2).
Proof z1 = r1 e i1 , z2 = r2 ei2
z1z2 = r2r2 e i( 1   2 )
 |z1z2| = |z1| |z2|
arg (z1z2) = arg (z1) + arg (z2)
i.e. to multiply two complex numbers, we multiply their absolute values and add their arguments.

(i) P.V. arg (z1z2)  P.V. arg (z1) + P.V. arg (z2)
(ii) |z1 z2 .... zn| = |z1| |z2| ..... |zn|
(iii) arg (z1z2 .... zn) = arg z1 + arg z2 + ..... + arg zn

Let P, Q be represented by z1 = r1 e i1 , z2 = r2 e i2 repectively. To find point R representing complex number
z1z2 we take a point L on real axis such that OL = 1 and draw triangle OQR similar to triangle OLP. Therefore

Hence, R is represented by z1z2 = r1r2 e i( 1   2 )

CONJUGATE OF A 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.

(i) If z = x + iy, then x = ,y=

(iii) z+ z =0  z is purely imaginary
(iv) Relation between modulus and conjugate. |z|2 = z z

(vii) (z1 z 2 ) = z1 z 2

 z1  (z1 )
(viii)   = (z2  0)
 z 2  (z2 )

Theorem Imaginary roots of polynomial equations with real coefficients occur in conjugate pairs
Proof If z0 is a root of a0zn + a1zn–1 + ...... + an–1 z + an = 0,
a0, a1, ....... an  R, then a 0 z 0n + a1z 0n 1 + ....... + an–1 z0 + an = 0
By using property (vi) and (vii) we have a 0 z0n + a 1 z0n 1 + ....... + a n 1 z0 + an = 0
 z0 is also a root.
Note If w = f(z), then w = f( z )

TIPS & FORMULAS


1. Definition
Complex numbers are defined as expressions of the form a+ ib where a, b  R & i = –1 . It is denoted by z i.e.
z = a + ib. ‘a’ is called real part of z (Re z ) and ‘b’ is called imaginary part of z (lm z).

Every Complex Number Can be Regarded As

Purely real Purely imaginary imaginary


if b = 0 if a = 0 if b  0

Note
(i) The set R of real numbers is a proper subset of the Complex Numbers. Hence the Complex Number system is
N  W  I  Q  R  C.
(ii) Zero is both purely real as well as purely imaginary but not imaginary.
(iii) i = –1 is called the imaginary unit. Also i 2 = – 1 ; i3 = – i ; i4 = 1
(iv) a b = ab only if atleast one of either a or b is non-negative.

2. Conjugate Complex
If z = a + ib then its conjugate complex is obtained by chamging the sign of its imaginary part & is denoted by z .
i.e. z = a – ib.
Note that :
(i) z + z = 2 Re (z) (ii) z – z = 2i Im (z) (iii) z z = a2+b2 which is real
(iv) If z is purely real then z – z = 0 (v) if z is purely imaginary then z + z = 0

3. Representations of a Complex Number in Various Forms


(A) Cartesian Form (Geometrical Representation) imaginary P(x,y)
Every complex nimber z = x + iy can be represented by a point on the axis
cartesian plane know as complex plane (Argand
diagram) by the ordered pair (x, y).
r
Length OP is called modulus of the complex number denoted by |z| &
q is called the argument or amplitude.
–1 y
e.g. | z |= x 2 + y 2 & θ = tan (angle made by OP with positive
x

x - axis).
O Real axis
Geometrically |z| represents the distance of point P from origin. (|z|  0)

(B) Trignometric / Polar Representation


z = r (cos  + i sin ) where |z| = r ; arg z =  ; z = r(cosθ – i sinθ)
Note : cos  + i sin  is also written as CiS 
Euler’s formula
The formula eix = cos x + i sin x is called Euler’s formula.

eix + e –ix eix + e –ix


Also cosx = & sinx = are known as Euler’s identities.

Ex. 16 If z1, z2 & z3 are the affixes of three points A, B & C respectively and satisfy the condition |z 1 – z2| = |z 1| + |z 2|
and |(2 - i) z1 + iz3 | = |z 1| + |(1 – i) z1 + iz3| then prove that  ABC in a right angled.
Sol. |z1 – z2| = |z1| + |z2|
 z1, z2 and origin will be collinear and z1, z2 will be opposite side of origin
Similarly |(2 - i) z1 + iz3 | = |z1| + |(1 – i) z1 + iz3|
 z1 and (1 – i) z1 + iz3 = z4 say, are collinear with origin and lies on same side of origin.
Let z4 = z1 ,  real
then (1 – i) z1 + iz3 = z1
(z 3  z1 )
 i (z3 – z1) = ( – 1) z1   z1 = ( – 1) i

z 3  z1

 0  z 1 = me , m =  – 1  z3 – z1 is perpendicular to the vector 0 – z1 .

i.e. also z2 is on line joining origin and z1


so we can say the triangle formed by z1 , z2 and z3 is right angled.

Let z be any complex number. To factorise the expression of the form zn – 1, we consider the equation zn = 1.
This equation is solved using De moiver's theorem. Let 1, 1, 2,........ n–1 be the roots of this equation, then
zn – 1 = (z – 1)(z – 1)(z –2)........(z – n–1) This method can be generalised to factorize any expression of the
