z = 50 / (3+4i). What is z in a+bi form?

Multiply by complex conjugate

z = 50 / (3+4i) * (3-4i) / (3-4i)

Rationalise

z = 50 ( 3 - 4i) / 25 = 6 - 8i.

How do you find the square roots of a complex number?


How do I find and plot the roots of a polynomial with complex roots on an Argand diagram? e.g. f(z) =z^3 -3z^2 + z + 5 where one of the roots is known to be 2+i


You are given a polynomial f, where f(x)=x^4 - 14x^3 + 74 x^2 -184x + 208, you are told that f(5+i)=0. Express f as the product of two quadratic polynomials and state all roots of f.


A curve has the equation (5-4x)/(1+x)
