The expression demonstrates the associative property because adding z_1 and z_2 first and then adding z_3 results in the same sum as adding z_2 and z_3 first and then adding z_1. This property allows for flexible grouping of additions without affecting the outcome, as verified in the expressions: \(i) \{ (5 + 7i) + (3 - 5i) \} + (2 + i) = (5 + 7i) + \{ (3 - 5i) + (2 + i) \} \)
The given expression can be simplified by evaluating the parts step-by-step. \(((3i - 2) + i) = (3i + i - 2) = (4i - 2) \). Then evaluating \(((2 + 3i) - 1) = (2 - 1 + 3i) = (1 + 3i) \). Finally, subtracting these results yields \((4i - 2) - (1 + 3i) = -3 + i \)
First express the complex number in standard form: i(2 + 3) = (3i + 2). To find the modulus, calculate \(\sqrt{2^2 + 3^2} = \sqrt{13} \). The argument is \( \tan^{-1}(\frac{3}{2}) \). Hence, the polar form is \( \sqrt{13} \text{cis} ( \tan^{-1}(\frac{3}{2}) ) \). Graphically, plot this point by extending a line from the origin at angle \( \tan^{-1}(\frac{3}{2}) \) and at distance \( \sqrt{13} \)
The equation |z - i| = |z + i| signifies that the distance from the complex number z to -i is equal to the distance from z to i. This equality describes the perpendicular bisector of the segment connecting -i and i, which corresponds to the real axis in the complex plane. This reasoning explains why it represents a straight line, specifically the line Re(z) = 0, or the y-axis.
De Moivre's Theorem states that for a complex number \(z = r \text{cis} θ \), \(z^n = r^n \text{cis}(nθ) \). This is derived by expressing a complex number in polar form and using the law of exponents. The theorem simplifies power operations to multiplication of the exponent with the argument. To use it, if \(z = 2 \text{cis} π/4 \), then for n = 3, \(z^3 = 2^3 \text{cis}(3π/4) = 8 \text{cis}(3π/4) \). It allows for efficient computation of powers with trigonometric functions.
This inequality is the triangle inequality for complex numbers. The modulus function, like absolute value, is subadditive: For complex numbers z_1 and z_2, \(|z_2 + z_1| = |(x_1 + x_2) + i(y_1 + y_2)| ≤ \sqrt{(x_1 + x_2)^2 + (y_1 + y_2)^2} ≤ |z_1| + |z_2| \) by expanding and using arithmetic inequalities. Thus it holds that the combined vector cannot exceed the sum of the individual vector lengths.
The condition |z - 4| ≥ |z| describes the points z such that the distance from z to the point 4 on the real axis is greater than or equal to the distance from z to the origin. Geometrically, the set of such points forms a region outside the circle centered at 2 with radius 2, because that circle represents all points equidistant from the origin and 4. Thus, any point on or outside this circle satisfies the condition.
To find the cube roots of z^3 = -1 (which can be written as e^(πi)), we use De Moivre's Theorem to solve z = e^(πi/3) for n = 0, 1, 2. The roots are obtained as z_k = e^(πi/3 + 2kπi/3) for k = 0, 1, 2. Thus, the solutions are: z_0 = 1, z_1 = cos(π/3) + i sin(π/3), and z_2 = cos(2π/3) + i sin(2π/3)
The modulus of a complex number is given by the formula \(\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \), so for the complex number 5 - 12i, the modulus is \(\sqrt{5^2 + (-12)^2} = 13 \). The argument θ is found using arctan(b/a), hence θ = arctan(-12/5). Since the imaginary part is negative, the argument lies in the fourth quadrant, θ = -\tan^{-1}(12/5)
The inequality |z + 2i| + |z - 2i| = 6 represents an ellipse centered at the origin with foci at (0, 2i) and (0, -2i) in the complex plane. An ellipse is defined as the set of points for which the sum of the distances to the foci is constant—in this case, 6. The sum of the distances from any point z to these foci measures how the point fits into this set, geometrically shaping an ellipse.
