Answer:

The imaginary part is the multiple of i. It is common practice to use the letter z to stand for a complex number and write z = a + bi where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part. where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part.

Explanation:

You can easily check that a complex number z = x + yi times its conjugate x – yi is the square of its absolute value |z|2. Therefore, 1/z is the conjugate of z divided by the square of its absolute value |z|2.

Complex numbers A complex number z is defined as an ordered pair z = (x, y), where x and y are a pair of real numbers.
