I see that you already got a specific answer. More in general, you can calculate the absolute value of a complex number using the Pythagorean theorem. You can also use the "rectangular to polar" conversion, available on just about any scientific calculator - which will give you both the absolute value, and the angle. However, using this function is a bit confusing, and you'll probably have to check the calculator manual.

The absolute value of a complex number z = x + iy is sqrt(x^2 + y^2).In this case, x = 7 and y = 9 so that |z| = sqrt(7^2 + 9^2) = sqrt(49 + 81) =sqrt(130) = 11.4018, approx.

|7 + 9i| = √(7² + 9²) = √130 ≈ 11.402
