How do you subtract imaginary numbers?
When adding and subtracting complex numbers, you can treat the "i" as any variable. For example, 5i + 3i = 8i, 5i -3i = 2i, etc.; (2 + 5i) - (3 - 3i) = (2 - 3) + (5 + 3)i = -1 + 8i.

What is the complex conjugate of 3i?
0+3i has a complex conjugate of 0-3i thus when you multiply them together (0+3i)(0-3i)= 0-9i2 i2= -1 0--9 = 0+9 =9 conjugates are used to eliminate the imaginary parts
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)).
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).
