Complex Conjugate -The conjugate of a + bi is a – bi -The conjugate of a – bi is a + bi To find the complex conjugate of 1-3i we change the sign of the imaginary part.
Examples: complex conjugate The complex conjugate we are going to look at a quantity known as the complex conjugate. Every complex number has associated with it another complex number known as its complex conjugate. • You find the complex conjugate simply by changing the sign of the imaginary part of the complex number. • To find the complex conjugate of 4+7i we change the sign of the imaginary part. • Thus the complex conjugate of 4+7i is 4 - 7i. • To find the complex conjugate of 1-3i we change the sign of the imaginary part.
