Complex numbers are theoretically interesting; they help us better understand the real numbers in some cases.They also have some very practical applications, including:

* Electrical circuits - in AC, things like resistance, current, and voltage acquire a phase angle, thus becoming complex numbers.

* Quantum mechanics - the probability amplitude is described with a complex number. As a result, complex numbers basically permeate all of quantum mechanics.
