They are used in many and people who map the earth use complex formulas in map
projections. You can use a formula like (z-1)/(z+i) to bend straight lines into most
anything. See the LINK for an example.

How did imaginary numbers impact mathematics?
Imaginary numbers are used in complex numbers that make some math simpler like electronics where there is a cycle frequency it makes the math much simpler to handle complex equations
How many branches of mathematics are there?
arithmeticgeometrytrigonometrymensurationalgebracalculusthere are 6 branches of mathematics
Why are imaginary numbers used in electronic systems control systems and physics?
Mathematics is beautiful in itself. Back in the 1700s and later, mathematicians studied "imaginary" numbers (numbers that involve a factor of the square root of -1) knowing that they didn't describe anything "real", the way "real numbers" do. But when beauty can be melded to practicality, things get REALLY interesting. It turns out that you can use imaginary numbers and "complex numbers" (which have a "real" component and an "imaginary" component) to describe the way radiation and electromagnetic fields behave.
What is branch of mathematics where unknown numbers can be represented by letters?
algebra? The unknown numbers of which you speak are called variables. "algebra" oxford dictionary definition = investigation of properties of numbers using letters etc as general symbolsAll branches of mathematics have the opportunity to utilize letters instead of numbers. This is called a variable and they are found in every branch of mathematics.
What are the uses of transcendental numbers?
Two of the most important numbers in mathematics, pi and e (Euler's number) are both transcendental. Both are used in almost all branches of mathematics, and through that, in our daily lives even if you are not aware of them.

What number is the opposite of 55.7?
In mathematics there are real and imaginary numbers. Real numbers include 55.7 as a tangible quantity, The imaginary and opposite number is (a negative or minus) -55.7.

What are the roots of complex numbers in mathematics?
See the answer to the related question: 'How do you solve the power of an imaginary number?' (Link below)
How do you find the square root of negative numbers?
For most school mathematics, negative numbers do not have square roots. This is because a negative number multiplied by itself is a negative times a negative and so is positive. When (if) you study advanced mathematics, you will learn that there is a solution and this falls within the realms of complex mathematics and imaginary numbers.
What is the branches of mathematics?
the main branches of mathematics are algebra, number theory, geometry and arithmetic.

What real number is less than -1?
Many options - e.g. -2"Real number" means all the numbers we know, including positive and negative numbers.The only numbers that are not included are "imaginary numbers" - numbers that have an imaginary part i (used only i physics or high mathematics).See real-number
What are the sub branches of mathematics?
I dont know... but i have a question....what is the branches of mathematics? by maricar pauline v. mesa
Are imaginary numbers irrational numbers?
No. Irrational numbers are real numbers, therefore it is not imaginary.
