Description
Notes start off by looking at the pattern that emerges as i is raised to different integer exponents, it then discusses the a+bi format, and finally there are 6 addition/subtraction problems and 6 multiplication problems both with complex numbers and of increasing complexity to complete together as examples.
The next (back page) is a circuit for students to complete on their own in class or as homework to further practice this skill. There are again 6 addition/subtraction problems and 6 multiplication problems both with complex numbers and of increasing complexity.
I use this right after students are introduced to complex numbers by learning to solve quadratic equations with complex solutions. I do this in my Integrated Math 2 class, but it could also fit in an algebra or ever pre-calculus class.
Note: there is a key for the notes, but not for the circuit since the answers are already within the circuit.
If you'd like just the circuit without the notes, see my store or the link below.
