z1 = a+ib and z2 = c+id then z1 = z2 implies that a = c and b = d.
If we have a complex number z where z = a+ib, the conjugate of the complex number is denoted by z* and is equal to a-ib. In fact, for any complex number z, its conjugate is given by z* = Re(z) – Im(z).
Division of complex numbers: The numerator as well as denominator should first be multiplied by the conjugate of the denominator and then simplified.
1. Argument of a complex number p(z) is defined by the angle which OP makes with the positive direction of x-axis.
2. Argument of z generally refers to the principal argument of z (i.e. the argument lying in (–π, π) unless the context requires otherwise.
3. Hence, the argument of the complex number z = a + ib = r (cos θ + i sin θ) is the value of θ satisfying r cos θ = a and r sin θ = b.
4. The angle θ is given by θ = tan-1 |b/a|.
5. The value of argument in various quadrants is given below:
If OP = |z| and arg (z) = θ, then obviously z = r (cos θ + i sin θ) and is called the polar form of complex number z.
|(z-z1) / (z-z2)| =1 the locus of point representing z is the perpendicular bisector of line joining z1 and z2.
-|z| ≤ Re(z) ≤ |z| and -|z| ≤ Im(z) ≤ |z|
If a and b are real numbers and z1 and z2 are complex numbers then
The distance between the complex numbers z1 and z2 is given by |z1 - z2|.
In parametric form, the equation of line joining z1 and z2 is given by z = tz1 + (1-t)z2.
If A(z1) and B(z2) are two points in the argand plane, then the complex slope μ of the straight line AB is given by μ = (z1 - z2)/ (1 - 2).
Two lines having complex slopes μ1 and μ2 are:
1. Parallel iff μ1 = μ2
2. Perpendicular iff μ1 = - μ2 or μ1 + μ2 = 0
I. ||z1| - |z2|| = |z1+z2| and |z1-z2| = |z1| + |z2| iff origin, z1, and z2 are collinear and origin lies between z1 and z2.
II. |z1 + z2| = |z1| + |z2| and ||z1| - |z2|| = |z1-z2| iff origin, z1 and z2 are collinear and z1 and z2 lie on the same side of origin.
III. The product of nth roots of any complex number z is z(-1)n-1.
IV. amp(zn) = n amp z
V. The least value of |z - a| + |z - b| is |a - b|.
Case I: If n is any integer, then
(i) (cos θ + i sin θ)n = cos nθ + i sin nθ
(ii) (cos θ1 + i sin θ1) . (cos θ2 + i sin θ2) ......... (cos θn + i sin θn)
= cos (θ1 + θ2 + θ3 .................. + θn) + i sin (θ1 + θ2 + .............. θn)
Case II: For p and q such that q ≠ 0, we have
(cos θ + i sin θ)p/q = cos((2kπ + pq)/q) + isin((2kπ+pq/q) where k = 0,1,2,3,.....,q-1
Demoivre’s formula does not hold for non-integer powers.
Main application of Demoivre’s formula is in finding the nth roots of unity. So, if we write the complex number z in the polar form then,
z = r(cos x + isin x)
Then z1/n = [r (cos x +i sinx )]1/n
= r 1/n [ cos (x+2kπ/n) + i sin (x+2kπ/n)]
Here k is an integer. To get the n different roots of z one only needs to consider values of k from 0 to n – 1.
Continued product of the roots of a complex quantity should be determined using theory of equations.
The modulus of a complex number is given by |z| = √x2+y2.
The only complex number with modulus zero is the number (0, 0).
