What is the differrent of imaginary numbers to complex numbers?
Imaginary number is a number that consist of only Imaginary part. Such as i, 40i, 1/2i, etc. While the difference between the imaginary numbers and the complex numbers are that complex number also contains Real numbers, and can be written as a + bi. For example, 30+i, 1/2+1/2i, etc.
Can a complex number be imaginary?
Yes, imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers.
Can a number be both complex and imaginary?
A complex number has a real part and a (purely) imaginary part, So imaginary numbers are a subset of complex numbers. But the converse is not true. A real number is also a member of the complex domain but it is not an imaginary number.
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.
How are complex numbers and real numbers related?
Complex numbers extend the concept of real numbers by introducing an imaginary unit, denoted as "i." Real numbers can be considered a subset of complex numbers with the imaginary part equal to zero. Complex numbers include both a real and imaginary component, allowing for operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
