Complex Numbers
Use the [MODE] key to enter the Complex (CMPLX) mode when you want to perform
calculations with complex numbers. [MODE] [2]
Complex Number Calculations
• The key for i is located above the [ENG] key. In complex mode, you do not have to
press [SHIFT].
• You can use the Replay function in the Complex mode.
• The indicator “R-I” will appear on the display in the upper right corner for complex
number results. Press [SHIFT] [[Re-Im] to toggle the display between the real part
and the imaginary part.
• You can use variables A, B, C, and M only in Complex mode.
• The current angle setting (Deg, Rad, Grad) affects the calculations.
• You can store an expression in CALC memory while in the Complex mode.
Absolute Value and Argument Calculation
If an imaginary number is expressed by the rectangular form z = a + bi and is
represented as a point in the Gaussian plane, you can determine the absolute value (r)
and argument (θ) of the complex number. The polar form is r∠θ.
Example: To determine the absolute value (r) and argument (θ) of 3 + 4i
(angle is set to Degrees)
[SHIFT] [Abs] [(] [3] [+] [4] [i] [)] [=] The result is 5 (r = 5).
[SHIFT] [arg] [(] [3] [+] [4] [i] [)] [=] The result is 53.13 (θ = 53.13°)
Example: Input the complex number using the polar form r∠θ (
2 ∠45)
[
] [2] [SHIFT] [∠] [45] [=] The result is 1 + i
Press [SHIFT] [Re-Im] to toggle between the real part and the imaginary
part.
Rectangular Form-Polar Form Display
You can convert a rectangular form complex number to its polar form, and a polar form
complex number to its rectangular form. Press [SHIFT] [Re-Im] to toggle between the
real part and the imaginary part.
Example: [1] [+] [
i
] [SHIFT] [r∠θ] [=] The result is 1.1414, ∠ 45.
[
] [2] [SHIFT] [∠] [45] [SHIFT] [a+b
i
] [=] The result is 1 +
i
Conjugate of a Complex Number
For any complex number z where z = a + bi, its conjugate is a - bi.
Example: The conjugate of 1 + 2i: [SHIFT] [Conjg] [(] [1] [+] [2] [i ] [)] [=]
The result is 1 - 2i:
