(3+5i) + (6-3i) = (9,2); (5-2i) - (3+4i) = (2,-6) (3-i)·(2-4i) = (2,-14); (5-2i)/(3+4i) = (0.28,-1.04) 1/(3+4i) = (0.12, -0.16) ; -(5-3i) = -5 + 3i

The CMPLX menus

There are two CMPLX (CoMPLeX numbers) menus available in the calculator. One is available through the MTH menu (introduced in Chapter 3) and one directly into the keyboard (‚ß). The two CMPLX menus are presented next.

CMPLX menu through the MTH menu

Assuming that system flag 117 is set to CHOOSE boxes (see Chapter 2), the CMPLX sub-menu within the MTH menu is accessed by using: „´9 @@OK@@ . The functions available are the following:

The first menu (options 1 through 6) shows the following functions:

RE(z)

: Real part of a complex number

IM(z)

: Imaginary part of a complex number

CR(z) : Separates a complex number into its real and imaginary parts

RC(x,y): Forms the complex number (x,y) out of real numbers x and y

ABS(z) : Calculates the magnitude of a complex number.

ARG(z): Calculates the argument of a complex number.

SIGN(z) : Calculates a complex number of unit magnitude as z/z.

NEG(z) : Changes the sign of z
