Girolamo Cardano: 1501-1576
A colourful life!

COMPLEX NUMBERSCOMPLEX NUMBERS
Cardano “stole” the method from Tartaglia. Finding x you mustwrite:
2 3
3 2 , 2 4 27 3 3
q q p p au x u
u
can be less than zerobut the solutionis a real number!
Square roots of negative numbers can be useful,just as negative numbers themselves.
COMPLEX NUMBERSCOMPLEX NUMBERS
By introducing one number 2 1i
we can solve lots of new problems, and makeother problems easier.
It can be multiplied, divided, added etc. just as anyother number; but the equation above is the onlyextra rule that allows you to convert between i andreal numbers.
Start by noticing that
4 4 1 2i So the square root ofany negative numbercan be expressed in termsof i.
COMPLEX NUMBERSCOMPLEX NUMBERS
Therefore we can solve equations like:
2 8x The answer is 2 2x i
But what is 1 3i 1 3i
The two types of number cannot be “mixed”.
Numbers of the form , k i k are called imaginary numbers (or “pure imaginary”)
Numbers like 1, 2, -3.8 that we used before are calledreal numbers.
When we combine them together in a sum we havecomplex numbers.

To summarize,
z a bi
•a and b are real numbers•a is the “real part” of z; Re(z) •b is the “imaginary part” of z; Im(z)•The sum of the two parts is called a “complex number”

Now that we have introduced complex numbers, we can view the quadratic solution differently.

Now there are always two solutions, albeit they can berepeated real solutions.
If the equation has no real roots, it must have two complex roots.If one complex root is 1 8i what is the other?
1 8i These two numbers are called“complex conjugates”.

If we write 3 2 3z i
Then the complex conjugate is written as * 3 2 3z i

Examine the argument on page 228. This is a key idea, although you don’t have to understand the proof.
Non-real roots of polynomialsNon-real roots of polynomials with real coefficientswith real coefficients
always occur in conjugate pairs.always occur in conjugate pairs.

Tasks
Find all the roots of the following two polynomials:
4 2b) 1z z
3 2a) 7 65z z z
The first example can be attacked using the factortheorem.Examining +/-1,+/-5,+/-13 gives one root as -5.Equating coefficients therefore gives:
3 2 27 65 ( 5)( 4 13)z z z z z z

The roots are therefore -5, 2-3i, 2+3i.

The second example looks simpler but is, in a way, more difficult.First set w = z2. 2

See page 229. We always have n roots for a polynomial of degree n. If the coefficients are real numbers, then we also know that any non-real roots occur in complex conjugate pairs.
If 1-8i is a root of polynomial B, what are the other roots?

The modulus is the length of the line from 0+0i to the number z, i.e. r.The argument is the angle between the positive real axis and that line, by convention we use
