Q

If given a fraction with a complex denominator, how can it be written in the form a+bi?

A

Act as if you were rationalising the denominator. Multiply the bottom by a-bi and it should remove imaginary parts from the bottom.

Q

find a and b such that (15+8i)^0.5=a+bi

A

square both sides.15+8i=(a+bi)(a+bi)expand the right side to get 15+8i=a²-b²+2abithus 8=2ab and 15=a²-b². Solve simultaneously.

Q

write -12 + 5i in modulus argument form.

A

first find the modulus. In this case, it is 13.then find the angle between the line going from the origin to the point -12, 5. It is 2.75z=13(cos(2.75)+isin(2.75))

Q

how would you draw arg(z-4i)=0?

A

a horizontal line going though 4 on the imaginary axis.

17
Q

what do complex roots of equations always come in?

A

Pairs. The sign of the imaginary part can be changed.

18
Q

if given a cubic and one imaginary root, (1+2i)how are the other 2 found?

A

the other complex root simply has the sign changed.multiply. (z-1+2i)(z-1-2i). This gives (z²-2z+5). Then think of the thing you multiply this by to get the equation. Put this equal to 0 and solve.This is the other root.

19
Q

If you know the real root to an equation, how can the other 2 be found?

A

if it were 7, divide the equation by (x-7). Then use the quadratic formula on the result to find the other roots.

20
Q

if you have an equation with unknown coefficients and you know one of the imaginary roots, how do you find the coefficients?

A

make x= the imaginary root in your equation. Then bring the real and imaginary parts of the equation together and both must equal.

21
Q

what is an identity matrix?

A

one where the leading diagonal is 1s and all the others are 0s.

22
Q

what must be true when you are multiplying matrices?

A

The number of columns is equal to the number of rows.

23
Q

if A and B are roots of a quadratic equation

A

A + B = -b/aAB=c/a

24
Q

AB and C are the roots of a cubic equation.

A

A+B+C=-b/aAB+BC+CA=c/aABC=-d/a

25
Q

If ABC and D are roots of a qurtic equation

A

A+B+C+D=-b/aAB+AC+BD+BC+CD+DA=c/aABC+BCD+CDA+ABD=-d/aABCD=e/a

26
Q

what does ΣA mean?

A

A+B+C+D

27
Q

ΣAB

A

AB+AC+BD+BC+CD+DA

28
Q

ΣABC

A

ABC+BCD+CDA+ABD

29
Q

|5-6i-z|How would this point be represented?

A

As the z is negative it would be (5,6) if the diagram was Cartesian.

30
Q

What does the determinent represent?

A

The ratio of the change of area when a matrix is multiplied by a shape.

31
Q

If matrix A provides the transformation B and matrix Y has the transformation Z, what matrix would transform by B and then Z?

A

Matrix Y* matrix A

32
Q

If you know all the roots of an equation but not the coefficients, how would you find them ?

A

Multiply all the coefficient together in the form (x-a-bi)If a root was 2+2i you would write it (x-2-2i)

33
Q

If you have an equation where the denominatior and numerator are both polynomials of the same order, how is the vertical horizontal asymptote found?

A

Divide the coefficients of the highest degree terms and y= that value

34
Q

If the polynomial in the numerator is a higher degree than the denominator, how is the horizontal asymptote found?

A

There is no horizontal asymptote

35
Q

If the polynomial in the numerator is a lower degree than the denominator, how do you find the horizontal asymptote?

A

Y=0 is the asymptote
