Are imaginary and complex numbers the same?
No. A complex number is a number that has both a real part and an imaginary part. Technically, a pure imaginary number ... which has no real part ... is not a complex number.
What is an unreal in math?
The only thing I can think of that you might mean is an imaginary or complex number. Since there is no solution to √(-1) mathematicians labeled it as i which is the imaginary number, and any number that includes purely i is also imaginary. Complex numbers are a mix of both real and imaginary numbers. for example 3 is real, 5i is imaginary and 3+5i is complex. Hopefully this answers what you meant.
What is the difference between imaginary numbers and complex numbers?
No difference. The set of complex numbers includes the set of imaginary numbers.
What are the characteristics of a complex number?
A complex number must have a real and imaginary part. It can be in the form: a + bi i is an imaginary number and a and b are real numbers
Why are complex numbers imaginary?
An imaginary number has the form b*i, where b is any real number, and i is the imaginary unit number sqrt(-1). A complex number is in the form a + b*i, where a and b are any real number. Complex numbers are called complex, because they combine numbers from the real domain and the imaginary domain.I thought the Wikipedia article was very good. Also, Answers.com has a video about complex and imaginary numbers.
