Is an imaginary number always sometimes or never a complex 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.
What is the difference between imaginary numbers and complex numbers?
No difference. The set of complex numbers includes the set of imaginary numbers.
What is complex math?
Complex math covers how to do operations on complex numbers. Complex numbers include real numbers, imaginary numbers, and the combination of real+imaginary numbers.
Can a complex number be imaginary?
Yes, imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers.
How are real numbers imaginary numbers and complex numbers related?
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).
Which number belongs to the set of complex numbers?
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.
Is Every complex number is a pure imaginary number?
No. All Complex Numbers are of the form a + bi where a and b are Real Numbers and i is the square root of -1. So only ones where a = 0 are pure Imaginary Numbers.
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.
Is 5i a complex number?
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.
Is 3 a complex number?
Yes. All real numbers are considered complex numbers, with the imaginary part being equal to zero.
Does 48 have a square?
All numbers, even imaginary or complex ones, have squares.
Why are complex numbers imaginary?
An imaginary number has the form b*i, where b is any real number, and i is the imaginary unit number sqrt(-1). A complex number is in the form a + b*i, where a and b are any real number. Complex numbers are called complex, because they combine numbers from the real domain and the imaginary domain.I thought the Wikipedia article was very good. Also, Answers.com has a video about complex and imaginary numbers.
