What real number subsets are square root numbers in?
if there is no integer answer, they are irrationalex. sq root 5 is irrational but sq root 9 = 3 so it is rational,integer, counting numberif you are taking sq root of a negative they are imaginary ex. sqroot (-9)=========================The square roots of all positive real numbers are real numbers.The square roots of all negative real numbers are imaginary numbers.Some square roots are rational, but the vast majority are irrational.
The difference of two complex numbers is always a complex number?
A complex number is any number that is in the real/imaginary plane; this includes pure reals and pure imaginaries. The difference between two numbers inside this plane is never outside this plane; therefore, yes, the difference between two complex numbers is always a complex number. However, the difference between two numbers that are neither purely imaginary nor purely real is not always necessarily a number that is neither purely imaginary nor purely real. Take x+yi and z+yi for instance, where x, y, and z are all real: (x+yi)-(z+yi)=x+yi-z-yi=x-z. Since x and z are both real numbers, x-z is a real 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.
What is a polynomial that does not factor over the real numbers referred to as?
There is no specific term for such polynomials. They may be referred to as are polynomials with only purely complex roots.
Is the sum of two pure imaginary numbers always a pure imaginary number?
Yes, the only argument would be the example, i + (-i) = 0. However, many people don't realize that 0 is both a purely real and pure imaginary number since it lies on both axes of the complex plane.
