Appendix A: Complex Numbers

1.img
2.img
3.img
4. Write z = a + bi and img.
a.im (iz) = im (− b + ai) = a = re z.
c.img.
e.img
5. a. unit circle (c) line y = x (e) 0 and the positive real axis
7. img
9. a. If z = a + bi and img, then img, so img
Take positive square roots.
10.img
11.img
12.img
13. a.img
                               = (cos 2θ − sin 2θ) + i(2 cos θ sin θ)
14. a.img
c.img
15. a.z = r(cos θ + sin θ) so img. But img and img, so reimg. If z−1 = se, then 1 = zz−1 = rsei(θ+ϕ). Thus rs = 1, so img, and θ + ϕ = 0 so (one choice for ϕ is) ϕ = − θ. Hence img.
16. a. Let img so that the kth root of unity is img by DeMoivre's theorem. Now img by the Hint so,

img

because img Since img this implies that img as required.
17. a. Have zi = ei for angles θi. The angles between them all equal img (because they are equally spaced). Let θ1 = α as in the diagram. Then

img

If we write z = e, then z5 = 1. Now use the hint:

img

img
19. Let img, img. If img is a root of f(x), then f(z) = 0. Hence, img img because img for each i (being real).
21. Let z = re. (a) If t > 0, tz = tre has the same angle θ as z. Hence tz is on the line through 0 and z, on the same side of 0 as z. (b) If t = − s, s > 0, then tz = srei(θ+π), and so is on the line through 0 and z, on the other side of 0 from z.
23.
a. If img, then img. If b1b, then img is rational, an impossibility. Hence, b1 = b whence a = a1.
c.img, so:

img

e. Using (c) and (d) above: img
