Explanation:

In maths, Conjugates are defined as a pair of binomials with identical terms but parting opposite arithmetic operators in the middle of these similar terms. For example, p – q is the conjugate of p + q.

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, the complex conjugate of {\displaystyle a+bi} is equal to {\displaystyle a-bi.}

The math conjugate of a number is a number that when multiplied or added to the given number results in a rational number. For example,

The conjugate of a surd 6 + √2 is 6 - √2.

The conjugate of a complex number 5 - 3i is 5 + 3i.
