Let the given complex number
z = x + ix =
We have to find the standard form of complex number.
Solution:
∴ x + iy =
Rationalising numerator part of complex number, we get
x + iy =
⇒ x + iy =
Using the algebraic identity:
(a + b)(a - b) = -
⇒ x + iy =
⇒ x + iy = [ ∵
]
⇒ x + iy =
⇒ x + iy =
⇒ x + iy =
⇒ x + iy = 1 - i
Thus, the given complex number in standard form as "1 - i".
