Best Answer

There are many reasons, but the one I'm fond of is that if you plot a complex equation, you can visualize certain aspects of say electricity. A plot of w=(z-1)/(z+1)

can show a possible electromagnetic field of two wires carrying current as depicted

Mapping of complex numbers in complex plane?

In the complex plane, each complex number is represented by a point, with the real part as the x-coordinate and the imaginary part as the y-coordinate. The mapping of complex numbers in the complex plane allows us to visualize operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division geometrically. It also enables us to study properties such as modulus, argument, and conjugate of complex numbers.

Why properties of square roots are true only for non negative numbers?

The square of a "normal" number is not negative. Consequently, within real numbers, the square root of a negative number cannot exist. However, they do exist within complex numbers (which include real numbers)and, if you do study the theory of complex numbers you wil find that all the familiar properties are true.
