The solution of a quadratic equation can be obtained by the formula.
Example
i) If
This is straight forward enough.
ii) If
In fact cannot be represented by an ordinary number.
Similarly,
Then from the equation that we have been solving it gives that
Since stand for
Note that
The power of reduces to one of
It can be deduced that
Numbers of the form ,where a and b are real numbers are called complex numbers.
Note that cannot be combined any further
In such expression
A is called the real part of a complex number
B is called imaginary part of a complex number (NOT )
Complex number = (real part) + (imaginary part)

Any pair of complex numbers of the form has a product which is real.
i.e.
Such complex numbers are said to be conjugate
Each is a conjugate of the other.
Hence
i.e.
.if then the conjugate is
A division will be done by multiplying numerator and denominator the conjugate of the denominator.
Example
For division, the numerator and denominator both will be multiplied by the conjugate of the denominator.
i.e.
NOTE: – The complex number is zero if and only if the real term and the imaginary term are each zero.
– The real term is given first even when is negative
i.e.
Suppose
Thus two complex numbers are equal if and only if the real terms and the imaginary terms are separately equal.

DEMOIVRE’S THEOREM
Demoivre’s theorem is a generalized formula to compute powers of a complex number in its polar form
Consider from the earlier discussion we can find (Z)(Z)
This brings us to Demoivres theorem
If and n is a positive integer
Then
Proof demoivre’s theorem by induction.
Test formula to be true for n
Let us show that the formula is true for n = k+1
Since the formula was shown to be true for n = 1, 2 hence its true for integral value of n.
Example
1. Find
Solution
2. From Demoivere’s theorem prove that the complex number is always real and hence find the value of the expression when n = 6
Solution
FINDING THE nth ROOT
Demoivere’s formula is very useful in finding roots of complex numbers.
If n is any positive integer and Z is any complex number we define an nth root of Z to be any complex number ‘w’ which satisfy the equation
Examples
