You could also just convert into polar coordinates which gives you: sqrt(r)sqrt(e^(ia)) -> sqrt(r)e^(ia/2) where r is the radius and a the angle. You can then generalize this even more and get the formula: nth-root(a+bi) = nth-root(r)e^(i(a+2kπ)/n) in which k is an integer
Using the the modulus of a+bi, you get three equations : x²+y²=sqrt(a²+b²) x²-y²=a 2xy=b the two first equations give us : x² =1/2(a+sqrt(a²+b²))and y²=1/2(a-sqrt(a²+b²)) and you can conclude with the sign of b.
@@he-man4076 but you can easily convert that to square roots bc a complex exponential is just sin and cos So we have an angle equal to the inverse tangent, and that angle is inputed into sin and cos, and we can easily find the value of that just by using triangles.
My first thought was to use polar or trig form: a+bi = re^(it) so by DeMoivre's, √(a+bi) = √r•e^(i•t/2) = √r(cos(t/2) + isin(t/2) or √r(cos((t/2)+π)+isin((t/2)+π)). Here r = √(a²+b²), cos(t/2)= ±√((1+cos t)/2), sin(t/2) = ±√( (1-cos t)/2). cos(t) = a/√(a²+b²) After simplification and accounting for ± signs, results are equivalent.
And then there is the similar identity: sqrt(a + b) = (S + b / S) / sqrt(2) where S = sqrt( sqrt(a^2 - b^2) + a) It is not really a simplification (unless it is a denestable nested radical), but it is an interesting identity nonetheless. And for b = i * c , it can be used to derive the identity in the video.
@@XJWill1 I typed this in wolframalpha and it said this is not always true (a=-1, b=1/2). Is it only true when a and b are positive? Edit: I replaced a with |a| and b with |b| but it still says not always true, why?
There's a much easier way to solve (x+iy) ^2=a+ib using the absolute value : x^2-y^2 = a, x^2+y^2 = |x+iy|^2 = |a+ib|=sqrt(a^2+b^2),, solve this very easy linear system to get x^2 and y^2, finally use the sign of b to decide if x and y have the same sign or opposite.
@@shadow-ht5gk I’ve done that in my newer video comment. It happens that the use of the quadratic formula involved in the video is basically the same as the use of half-angle formulae that I need. But my calculations reveal more precisely how the signs for the square roots should be considered.
Write z=a+bi=r*cis(w) where r=|z|=sqrt(a^2+b^2) and w=Arg(z) which here is restricted to lie in (-pi, pi]. Then, by de Moivre’s formula, the two distinct square roots of z are given by: z_1=sqrt(r)*cis(w/2) and z_2=sqrt(r)*cis(pi+w/2)=-z_1, where w/2 lies in (-pi/2, pi/2]. Write r=sqrt(a^2+b^2), c=cos(w)=a/r, s=sin(w)=b/r. cos(w/2)=sqrt((1+c)/2) =sqrt((r+a)/(2r)), which is always nonnegative; sin(w/2)=sgn(b)*sqrt((1-c)/2) =sgn(b)*sqrt((r-a)/(2r)) So the square roots of z are: +/-[sqrt((r+a)/2)+sgn(b)*sqrt((r-a)/2)*i].
3:39 you say that we only want the positive root because then when we try to get x it'll be real, but that's only if the discriminate is greater than -b. What you're saying is true in this case but generally it's not necessarily true.
The consequence of the formula is that the complex number will have two distinct root, hmm. Complex numbers sure are complex and they really defy my expectations.
Positive real numbers already have 2 distinct square roots. We just usually pretend one of them doesn't exist unless we're solving a quadratic. Be glad you're not dealing with hypercomplex numbers like quaternions. In those cases there can be infinitely many square roots for certain values. For complex numbers, x² = y -> √y = ±x. But sometimes, i² = j², but ±i ≠ ±j.
I'm always wondering. If b is an even number (i.e., b=2b'), x=[-b'±√{(b')^2-ac}]/a is the formula for solving quadratic equations, but I've never seen anything using in other videos of the same kind. I think this is easier and more convenient, but why? In this video, x^2=[2a+√{(-2a)^2-4*(-b^2)}/4, so it seems like there's not much difference, but if "a" of a(x^2)+bx+c=0 is 1, the denominator becomes 1 and feels very easy.
But in the start, didnt you use (a * b)² = a² * b² ? I thought that doesnt apply for imaginary numbers! Because you have to half the angle? Did i miss something?
Its super easy, either use the exact sqme taylor seiries you would use to do sqrt in the first place. Or if you have q purely real calculator use qrchtqn to do q complex logarithem divide by two and raise e to it
Again, you made the same mistake as you calculated Sqrt(i). You cannot take the square of sqrt(a + bi) and get two solutions from it because one of them is NOT the answer. Think about this number, sqrt(1 + 0i). Clearly, it has only one answer, which is 1. But using your formula for x and y, we get two answers, 1 and -1. Your work perfectly calculates the square roots of a + bi, but not sqrt(a + bi). They are two different things. The square roots of 1 are 1 and -1, but sqrt(1) != -1.

You could also just convert into polar coordinates which gives you: sqrt(r)sqrt(e^(ia)) -> sqrt(r)e^(ia/2) where r is the radius and a the angle.
You can then generalize this even more and get the formula:
nth-root(a+bi) = nth-root(r)e^(i(a+2kπ)/n) in which k is an integer
I think this is cleaner than getting a form with an arctangent involved, but yes polar is much simpler and easier to deal with exponents
Fabulous teacher, got me loving math again!
These "just x" channels are really cool. You always go into more detail on some things that we might not have seen in a typical "x" course.
Technically x≠0 for b=0 since y=b/(2x) which makes sense since for b=0 you would need y=0 i guess
No, it depends on the value of a. If a
7:51 "…and hopefully everything is clear." Crystal.
Using the the modulus of a+bi, you get three equations :
x²+y²=sqrt(a²+b²)
x²-y²=a
2xy=b
the two first equations give us : x² =1/2(a+sqrt(a²+b²))and y²=1/2(a-sqrt(a²+b²)) and you can conclude with the sign of b.
nice!!
I don't see clear the first equation: is the modulus of a square the square of the modulus?
@@rmlu9767
(x+iy)²=a+ib
Thus : |x+iy|²=|a+ib|
This gives : x²+y²=sqrt(a²+b²)
Is it more clear?
@@dulot2001 Yes, I completely forgot that property. Thank you.
Can't we convert the complex number into trigonometric form and apply De Moivres theorem?
not all numbers can be converted to trig forms by, we can only do multiples of 15 and try to use sin(a+b) formulas but much easier using this formula
@@AayushSrivastava0307 You can use half angle formula, it should be equivalent
Why not just convert to polar coordinates? (a + bi)^(1/2) = ((a^2 + b^2)e^itaninv(b/a))^(1/2) = +/- (a^2 + b^2)^(1/4)e^i(taninv(b/a))/2
We're assuming that we don't have a calculator or the brainpower to work out an inverse tangent. After all, there's no fun in that.
Computing square roots are much easier than computing complex exponentials and inverse tangents.

If b=0 it's y that is = 0, just plug in b = 0 in both of these and y will reduce to 0
if b = 0 and a is negative, y will not be 0 since sqrt(a) would be a complex number. x will be 0 though.

If sqrt(16(a^2+b^2))>4a, then 4a " - " sqrt(16(a^2+b^2)) would be negative, and x^2 can't end up with a negative because x is real

My first thought was to use polar or trig form: a+bi = re^(it) so by DeMoivre's, √(a+bi) = √r•e^(i•t/2) =
√r(cos(t/2) + isin(t/2) or √r(cos((t/2)+π)+isin((t/2)+π)). Here r = √(a²+b²), cos(t/2)=
±√((1+cos t)/2), sin(t/2) = ±√( (1-cos t)/2). cos(t) = a/√(a²+b²)
After simplification and accounting for ± signs, results are equivalent.
If the argument is a nice fraction of π, converting to modulus-argument form makes sense, but sometimes you'll get a horrible decimal for the argument
And then there is the similar identity:
sqrt(a + b) = (S + b / S) / sqrt(2)
where S = sqrt( sqrt(a^2 - b^2) + a)
It is not really a simplification (unless it is a denestable nested radical), but it is an interesting identity nonetheless. And for b = i * c , it can be used to derive the identity in the video.
How does that simplification help at all? Also what’s this identity called?

Actually, if b=0, then y=0. The x might be 0 or non-0. In this case, the x value depends solely on a. Right?

Write z=a+bi=r*cis(w) where r=|z|=sqrt(a^2+b^2) and w=Arg(z) which here is restricted to lie in (-pi, pi].
Then, by de Moivre’s formula, the two distinct square roots of z are given by:
z_1=sqrt(r)*cis(w/2) and
z_2=sqrt(r)*cis(pi+w/2)=-z_1,
where w/2 lies in (-pi/2, pi/2].
Write r=sqrt(a^2+b^2), c=cos(w)=a/r, s=sin(w)=b/r.
cos(w/2)=sqrt((1+c)/2)
=sqrt((r+a)/(2r)), which is always nonnegative;
sin(w/2)=sgn(b)*sqrt((1-c)/2)
=sgn(b)*sqrt((r-a)/(2r))
So the square roots of z are:
+/-[sqrt((r+a)/2)+sgn(b)*sqrt((r-a)/2)*i].
I like how the modulus of the original number comes into play. Maybe this has some nice geometric visualisation?
Converting to polar coordinates shows how
Taking the sqrt halves the angle to the x axis and square roots the modulus
what about \sqrt(z^2)? Is it always equal to z that is \sqrt{z^2}=z and it can be -z?
Is there any formula I can use sir
Both graph y = sin x and y = sin^2 x are similar?
