It helps to visualize the numbers on a plane. The complex numbers occupy the entire plane. The real numbers are all the numbers on the horizontal axis, the imaginary numbers are all the numbers on the vertical axis. A complex number thus has a real and an imaginary part, a + bi, where a and be are real numbers (for example, 3 - 2i).
Imaginary numbers are not a subset of the real numbers; imaginary means not real.
Lots of numbers do. To begin, all real numbers do. Multiples of sqrt(-1), aka. imaginary numbers, do. The Complex Numbers are all numbers which are the sum of a real number and an imaginary number.
2 does belong to the set of imaginary numbers. Any real number is also imaginary. Imaginary numbers are the set of all numbers that can be expressed as a +b*i where "i" is the square root of negative one and "a" and "b" are both real numbers.
Yes, imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers.
No, it is imaginary. Irrational numbers are a subset of real numbers Real numbers and imaginary numbers are sets without any overlap.
No. Irrational numbers are real numbers, therefore it is not imaginary.
Both imaginary and real numbers are infinite .Answer:Any real number can be turned into an imaginary number by multiplying it by "i" ot "j" (the root of -1). Hence it would appear that the set of all real numbers would equal the set of all imaginary numbers. However 0 (zero) multiplied by anything still equals zero. This would mean that there is at least one number that cannot be converted to an imaginary number.
Always. The set of imaginary numbers is a subset of complex numbers. Think of complex numbers as a plane (2 dimensional). The real numbers exist on the horizontal axis. The pure imaginary are the vertical axis. All other points on the plane are combinations of real and imaginary. All points on the plane (including imaginary axis and real axis) are complex numbers.
Real numbers are numbers that you are already familiar with: integers, fractions, and irrational numbers: 1, 2, 0, -5, ¾, sqrt(2), pi, etc. Next, you need to know about imaginary numbers. These are numbers that, when squared, will give a negative real number. No real number can do that. Now imagine a graphical plane, with the real axis on the horizontal, and the imaginary axis on the vertical. This is called the complex plane, and any combination of real and imaginary numbers can be plotted on the complex plane.The set of complex numbers includes all real numbers as well as all imaginary numbers, and the combination of the two.
Yes it is. All pure imaginary numbers (such as 5i) as well as all real numbers and any combination of real & imaginary (by adding, subtractin, multiplying, dividing) makes a complex number.
Complex math covers how to do operations on complex numbers. Complex numbers include real numbers, imaginary numbers, and the combination of real+imaginary numbers.
