Ah, what a lovely question! When we have a complex number like -2i, we can see that the real part is 0. You see, the real part is the coefficient of the term with the variable "i," and in this case, there isn't a real part, so it's simply 0. Just a happy little zero floating peacefully in the complex plane.

Examples of complex numbers?
5+6i , -2-2i , 100+i.A complex number consists of a real part and an imaginary part: a+bi where 'i' is the imaginary unit (sq.rt(-1)).
When the sum of the complex numbers 3 plus 2I and 6 - 4I is graphed in which quadrant does it lie?
3+2i + 6-4i = 9-2i The real part of this number is positive, therefore it lies in Q1 or Q4. The imaginary part is negative, therefore it is in Q3 or Q4. Q4 is the common possibility, therefore 9-2i is in Q4.
Which of these are complex numbers 5 3i 1 2i?
All of them. Real numbers are a subset of complex numbers.
What is complex number system?
All pairs of numbers, written in the form a + bi (for example: 3 + 5i, or 7 - 2i, etc.), where the first number is called (for historical reasons) the "real part" and the second number the "imaginary part". Complex numbers can be graphed as points on a plane. They have important applications in several fields of science, arts, and pure mathematics.
The sum of two complex numbers is always a complex number?
A "complex number" is a number of the form a+bi, where a and b are both real numbers and i is the principal square root of -1. Since b can be equal to 0, you see that the real numbers are a subset of the complex numbers. Similarly, since a can be zero, the imaginary numbers are a subset of the complex numbers. So let's take two complex numbers: a+bi and c+di (where a, b, c, and d are real). We add them together and we get: (a+c) + (b+d)i The sum of two real numbers is always real, so a+c is a real number and b+d is a real number, so the sum of two complex numbers is a complex number. What you may really be wondering is whether the sum of two non-real complex numbers can ever be a real number. The answer is yes: (3+2i) + (5-2i) = 8. In fact, the complex numbers form an algebraic field. The sum, difference, product, and quotient of any two complex numbers (except division by 0) is a complex number (keeping in mind the special case that both real and imaginary numbers are a subset of the complex numbers).
