The absolute value of a complex number $z=a+b i:|z|=\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}$ The absolute value of a complex number $z$, denoted $|z|,$ represents the distance between the origin and the point $(a, b)$ in the complex plane. Use the formula to find $|z|$ for the complex numbers given (also see Section $1.4, \text { Exercise } 69):(\mathrm{a}) 3+4 i$ (b) $-5+12 i,$ and $(\mathrm{c}) 1+\sqrt{3} i$

Key Concepts

Complex Plane

The complex plane is a two-dimensional plane used to represent complex numbers, where the horizontal axis represents the real part and the vertical axis represents the imaginary part. This visualization aids in understanding complex number operations, such as addition, multiplication, and finding the modulus, by providing a geometric interpretation.

Absolute Value (Modulus) of a Complex Number

The absolute value, or modulus, of a complex number is a measure of its distance from the origin in the complex plane. It is computed using the formula |z| = ?(a² + b²), where a and b are the real and imaginary components, respectively. This concept is analogous to finding the magnitude of a vector in the Euclidean plane.

Complex Numbers

A complex number is an expression of the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and i is the imaginary unit defined by i² = -1. Complex numbers are used to extend the real number system, providing solutions to equations that have no real solutions, and they play a fundamental role in various branches of mathematics and engineering.
