CLEP General Mathematics: Complex Numbers

Subjects : clep, math
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Has exactly n roots by the fundamental theorem of algebra






2. What about dividing one complex number by another? Is the result another complex number? Let's ask the question in another way. If you are given four real numbers a -b -c and d - can you find two other real numbers x and y so that






3. 1st. Rule of Complex Arithmetic






4. We consider the a real number x to be the complex number x+ 0i and in this way we can think of the real numbers as a subset of






5. 1






6. Numbers on a numberline






7. One of the numbers ... --2 --1 - 0 - 1 - 2 - ....






8. No i






9. 4th. Rule of Complex Arithmetic






10. I^2 =






11. (2+i)(2i-3) you would use the foil methom which is first outter inner last. (2x2i)(2x-3)(ix2i^2)(ix(-3) =i-8






12. Notice that rules 4 and 5 state that we complex numbers together - we can divide by c + di if c and d are not both zero. But there is a much easier way to do division.

13. Not on the numberline






14. Cos n? + i sin n? (for all n integers)






15. V(zz*) = v(a² + b²)






16. In this amazing number field every algebraic equation in z with complex coefficients






17. ½(e^(-y) +e^(y)) = cosh y






18. It is an amazing fact that by adjoining the imaginary unit i to the real numbers we obtain a complete number field called






19. We see in this way that the distance between two points z and w in the complex plane is






20. The square root of -1.






21. 1






22. Derives z = a+bi






23. y / r






24. A + bi = z1 c + di = z2 - addition: z1 + z2 = (a + bi) + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i subtraction: z1 - z2 = (a - c) + (b - d)i

26. A plot of complex numbers as points.






27. When two complex numbers are multipiled together.






28. We can also think of the point z= a+ ib as






29. A² + b² - real and non negative






30. 3






31. Divide moduli and subtract arguments






32. The complex number z representing a+bi.






33. When two complex numbers are subtracted from one another.






34. (2-3i)-(4+6i)you would distribute the negitive and combine your like terms and your answer is -2-9i






35. A number that can be expressed as a fraction p/q where q is not equal to 0.






36. To prove that number field every algebraic equation in z with complex coefficients has a solution we need

38. When two complex numbers are divided.






39. xpressions such as ``the complex number z'' - and ``the point z'' are now






40. ½(e^(iz) + e^(-iz))






41. When you multiply two complex numbers a + bi and c + di FOIL the terms: (a + bi)(c + di) = (ac - bd) + (ad + bc)i






42. Written as fractions - terminating + repeating decimals






43. R^2 = x






44. The reals are just the






45. A complex number and its conjugate






46. Has the opposite sign of a complex number; the conjugate of a + bi is a - bi






47. When you subtract two complex numbers a + bi and c + di - you get the difference of the real parts and the difference of the imaginary parts: (a + bi) - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i






48. To simplify the square root of a negative number






49. For real a and b - a + bi =






50. Any number not rational
