Complex Numbers and Applications ME50 ADVANCED ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS 1 Complex Numbers √ A complex number is an ordered pair (x‚ y) of real numbers x and y. For example‚ (−2.1‚ 3.5)‚ (π‚ 2)‚ (0‚ 0) are complex numbers. Let z = (x‚ y) be a complex number. The real part of z‚ denoted by Re z‚ is the real number x. The imaginary part of z‚ denoted by Im z‚ is the real number y. Re z = x Im z = y Two complex numbers z1 = (a1‚ b1) and z2 = (a2‚ b2) are equal‚ written z1 = z2 or (a1‚ b1) = (a2‚ b2)
