Properties of Complex Number Algebra
Complext numbers have certain algebraic properties that are very important when simplifying or solving complex equations.
- Addition: $ \,(a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i $
- Subtraction: $ \,(a + bi) - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i $
- Multiplication: $ \,(a + bi) (c + di) = ac + bci + adi + bd i^2 = (ac - bd) + (bc + ad)i $
- Division: $ \,\frac{(a + bi)}{(c + di)} = \left({ac + bd \over c^2 + d^2}\right) + \left( {bc - ad \over c^2 + d^2} \right)i\,, $ where c and d are not both zero.
