1.1 Complex Numbers
The square root of a negative number is called a non-real or imaginary number (𝑖).
Complex numbers are made up of two parts: 𝑧 = 𝑎 + 𝑏𝑖, where 𝑎 represents the real
part (𝑅𝑒(𝑧)) and 𝑏 represents the non-real/imaginary part (𝐼𝑚(𝑧)).

, Some Important Notation:

𝑖 = √−1

𝑖 2 = (√−1)2 = −1

𝑖 3 = (√−1)3 = 𝑖 2 . 𝑖 = (−1). 𝑖 = −𝑖

𝑖 4 = (√−1)4 = 𝑖 2 . 𝑖 2 = (−1)(−1) = 1
∴ 𝑖 𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 4 = 1


Worked Example 1
Given the complex numbers 𝑞 = −2 − 8𝑖 and 𝑠 = 5𝑖 + 9, find the following:
a) 𝑅𝑒(𝑞)
b) 𝑅𝑒(𝑠)
c) 𝐼𝑚(𝑞)
d) 𝐼𝑚(𝑠)


a) 𝑅𝑒(𝑞) = −2
b) 𝑅𝑒(𝑠) = 9
c) 𝐼𝑚(𝑞) = −8
d) 𝐼𝑚(𝑠) = 5



Worked Example 2
Determine the value of the following:
a) 𝑖 7
b) 𝑖 64
c) 𝑖 1999
d) 𝑖 2009


a) 𝑖 7
= 𝑖 4 . 𝑖 3 = (1)(−𝑖) = −𝑖

b) 𝑖 64
= 1 (recall: 𝑖 𝑎𝑛𝑦 𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 4 = 1))
