Imaginary and Complex Numbers
Imaginary numbers are the square roots of negative numbers.
All the properties of square roots extend to radicands containing complex numbers.
The complex numbers satisfy the commutative and associative properties for addition and multiplication.
To divide one complex number by another one, write the division as a fraction. Then multiply numerator and denominator of this fraction by the complex conjugate of the denominator.
