Complex Numbers
CCSS objective: Use complex numbers in
polynomial identities
 N-CN.1 Know there is a complex number i
such that i2 = −1, and every complex
number has the form a + bi with a and b
real.
N-CN.2 Use the relation i2 = –1 and the
commutative, associative, and distributive
properties to add, subtract, and multiply
complex numbers.

To figure out where we
are in the “i”cycle divide
the exponent by 4 and
look at the remainder.
12 4 = 3 with remainder 0
So i  i  1

Definition of Equal Complex Numbers
Two complex numbers are equal if
their real parts are equal and their
imaginary parts are equal.
If a + bi = c + di,
then a = c
and b = d
Simplify:
When adding or subtracting complex
numbers, combine like terms.

8  2  3i  5i
10  2i

To multiply complex
numbers, you use the same
procedure as multiplying
polynomials.
