LESSON 1: Forms of Complex Numbers & Evaluating Complex Numbers Using


Different Mathematical Operations

Objectives: Learn different forms of complex numbers, including conversion of one


form to another form and evaluation of complex numbers using different mathematical
operations.

Discussion: A complex number is of the form z = x + jy, where x and y are real
numbers. The x is the real part and jy is the imaginary part. The conjugate of z = x + jy
is the complex number z* = x – jy. The j operator operates in counterclockwise (ccw)
direction by 90o with respect to the reference axis with changing the magnitude. There
are four different forms of complex numbers namely: rectangular/Cartesian form, polar

rectangular/Cartesian form if A = a + jb, in polar form if A = A ∠ θ, in exponential form if


form, exponential form and trigonometric form. A complex number is said to be in

A = Ae^jθ, and in trigonometric form if A = [cosθ + jsinθ]A.

Instructions: Perform the following accordingly, then answer the questions that follow.
Place your answers on the space provided. Place the result of the following MATLAB
instructions on the space provided.

MATLAB Session

1. In MATLAB®, i and j represent the basic imaginary unit. You can use them to
create complex numbers such as 2i+5. You can also determine the real and
imaginary parts of complex numbers and compute other common values such as
phase and angle.

2. The following are the basic functions used in complex numbers:


3. The following statement shows one way of creating a complex value in MATLAB.
The variable x is assigned a complex number with a real part of 2 and an imaginary
part of 3:
>> x = 2 + 3i

4. Another way to create a complex number is using the complex function. This
function combines two numeric inputs into a complex output, making the first input
real and the second imaginary:
>> x = rand(3) * 5;
>> y = rand(3) * -8;
>> z = complex(x, y)

What happens after executing the above instruction?

5. You can separate a complex number into its real and imaginary parts using
the real and imag functions:
>> zr = real(z)

>> zi = imag(z)

6. Converting rectangular form to polar form:


>> x = 2 + j3;
>> rho = abs(x);
>> theta = angle(x);
>> X = rho * exp(j*theta)

7. Converting polar form to rectangular form:


>> z = 0.5;
>> theta = pi/4;
>> [X, Y] = pol2cart(theta, z)
