Complex numbers |
2007-10-27 |
|
Dylan pose la question :
My problem is to prove:
|z|^2 = zz* Where z is the complex number x + iy and z* is it's complex conjugate x - iy.
If the absolute value of i is 1, then it looks like: |z|^2 = |x+y| |x+y| = x^2 + 2xy + y^2
And zz* = x^2 + y^2. for these to be equal, 2xy = 0. This seems wrong to me. What am I doing wrong?
