Can a number be real and complex?
Yes. If the number is like, for example, 3+0i, then you'll figure out that the number, though is written as a complex number, is actually a real number 'cause 0i=0 and 3+0=3 so you have both real and complex number. Every number is a complex number, no matter if it's imaginary or real or a combination of both (a+bi).
Are imaginary and complex numbers the same?
No. A complex number is a number that has both a real part and an imaginary part. Technically, a pure imaginary number ... which has no real part ... is not a complex number.
Can a number be both complex and imaginary?
A complex number has a real part and a (purely) imaginary part, So imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers. But the converse is not true. A real number is also a member of the complex domain but it is not an imaginary number.
Can a no real number be a pure imaginary number?
If a number is pure imaginary then it has no real component. If it is a real number, then there is no imaginary component. If it has both real and imaginary components, then it is a complex number.
Is a complex number a number that can be written in the form a plus bi where a and b are real numbers?
Yes, a+bi is standard form for a complex number. The numbers (a) and (b) are both real and i is √(-1)
Is pi a complex number?
The set of real numbers are a subset of the set of complex numbers: imagine the complex plane with real numbers existing on the horizontal number line, and pure imaginary existing on the vertical axis. The entire plane (which includes both axes) is the set of complex numbers. So any real number (such as pi) will also be a complex number. But many people think of complex numbers as something that is "not a real number".
Is one a real complex pure imaginary or nonreal complex number?
One is a complex number and a real number.
Is every real number a complex number?
A complex number is a number of the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and i is the principal square root of -1. In the special case where b=0, a+0i=a. Hence every real number is also a complex number. And in the special case where a=0, we call those numbers pure imaginary numbers. Note that 0=0+0i, therefore 0 is both a real number and a pure imaginary number. Do not confuse the complex numbers with the pure imaginary numbers. Every real number is a complex number and every pure imaginary number is a complex number also.
What do you get if you raise a real number to a complex number?
You get a complex number unless the real number happens to be 0 or 1.
The sum of two complex numbers is always a complex number?
A "complex number" is a number of the form a+bi, where a and b are both real numbers and i is the principal square root of -1. Since b can be equal to 0, you see that the real numbers are a subset of the complex numbers. Similarly, since a can be zero, the imaginary numbers are a subset of the complex numbers. So let's take two complex numbers: a+bi and c+di (where a, b, c, and d are real). We add them together and we get: (a+c) + (b+d)i The sum of two real numbers is always real, so a+c is a real number and b+d is a real number, so the sum of two complex numbers is a complex number. What you may really be wondering is whether the sum of two non-real complex numbers can ever be a real number. The answer is yes: (3+2i) + (5-2i) = 8. In fact, the complex numbers form an algebraic field. The sum, difference, product, and quotient of any two complex numbers (except division by 0) is a complex number (keeping in mind the special case that both real and imaginary numbers are a subset of the complex numbers).
How is a percent a real number?
It need not be. For example, a complex number as a percent of most other complex numbers, or any real number, will not be a real number.
What is the complex number of its distance for the origin in the complex plane?
This is called the magnitude. It can be found (for a complex number a + bi) as:(where a & b are both real numbers and i is the imaginary unit)sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
