The meanings are the same but getting the answers use different rules. Ex:

1. None complex-(x+y)^2=xx+yy+2xy and is a family of parallel lines.

2. Complex-(x+iy)^2 Now notice the "i operator" and how it is used in the computation. (x+iy)(x+iy)=xx+i2xy+iiyy. Now i=(-1)^.5, so ii=-1 and so we have

xx-yy+i2xy. If we graph this out, we get families of parabolas at right angles to

each other. The (xx-yy) are the real and at right angles to the i2xy, the imaginaries.

Maybe somebody else can tackle the roots.
