  2. Imaginary number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaginary_number

    An illustration of the complex plane. The imaginary numbers are on the vertical coordinate axis. Although the Greek mathematician and engineer Heron of Alexandria is noted as the first to present a calculation involving the square root of a negative number, [6] [7] it was Rafael Bombelli who first set down the rules for multiplication of complex numbers in 1572.

  3. Complex number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_number

    Complex numbers allow solutions to all polynomial equations, even those that have no solutions in real numbers. More precisely, the fundamental theorem of algebra asserts that every non-constant polynomial equation with real or complex coefficients has a solution which is a complex number.

  4. Machin-like formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machin-like_formula

    Since the arctangent of one has a very slow convergence rate if we find two complex numbers that when multiplied will result in the same real and imaginary part we will have a Machin-like formula. An example is ( 2 + i ) {\textstyle (2+\mathrm {i} )} and ( 3 + i ) {\textstyle (3+\mathrm {i} )} .

  5. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    In fact, the same proof shows that Euler's formula is even valid for all complex numbers x. A point in the complex plane can be represented by a complex number written in cartesian coordinates. Euler's formula provides a means of conversion between cartesian coordinates and polar coordinates. The polar form simplifies the mathematics when used ...

  6. Complex conjugate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_conjugate

    In mathematics, the complex conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. That is, if a {\displaystyle a} and b {\displaystyle b} are real numbers, then the complex conjugate of a + b i {\displaystyle a+bi} is a − b i . {\displaystyle a-bi.}

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry_of_Complex_Numbers

    Geometry of Complex Numbers is an undergraduate textbook on geometry, whose topics include circles, the complex plane, inversive geometry, and non-Euclidean geometry. It was written by Hans Schwerdtfeger , and originally published in 1962 as Volume 13 of the Mathematical Expositions series of the University of Toronto Press .
