Argand Plane

A complex numbers \(x+iy\) can be plotted in cartesian coordinate as the point \((x,y)\). This plane is called Argand plane.

Addition and Substraction

Addition and substraction of complex numbers in Argand plane are similar to the vector addition and multiplication.

1. Multiplication in Complex Numbers

If we multiply two complex number \(z_1=r_1e^{i\theta_1}\) and \(z_2=r_2e^{i\theta_2}\), then we get

\[z_1\cdot z_2 = r_1\cdot r_2 e^{i (\theta_1 + \theta_2)}\]

Hence in polar coordinate, the magnitude will get multiplies while angle will get added.

2. Sequence and Series in Complex Numbers

Similar to real sequance, a complex sequence in simple a function \(f: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{C}\).
