Final answer:

The vocabulary words in the question are defined as follows: identity is an equation true for any and all values of the variables, conjugate is a complex number with the same real part but opposite imaginary part, modulus is the distance between the origin and a complex number on the complex plane, and a complex number is a combination of a real and imaginary number.


Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Identity: an equation which is true for any and all values of the variables in the equation.
  2. Conjugate: a complex number which has the same real part but the opposite of the imaginary part.
  3. Modulus: the distance between the origin and a complex number on the complex plane; given a complex number z = a + bi, the modulus which is denoted as |z| is defined as √(a^2 + b^2).
  4. Complex number: a combination of a real and an imaginary number, z = a + bi.
