Introduction
2
In Class10, We Studied about Quadratic Equations of the General form aX + bX + C = 0.
Also to find the Roots of this Quadratic Equation we used the "Quadratic Formula".

X = -b -+ b-4ac

Recall : If Discriminant (D) = b - 4ac > 0 : Real & Distinct Roots
2
(D) = b - 4ac = 0 : Real & Equal Roots

/padhleakshay
(D) = b - 4ac < 0 : No Real Roots or Imaginary Roots
Toh Suno, the above third Case implies ki under root me negative value ajayegi i.e -ve

for e.g -1 Jisko Solve karna abhi tak nhi seekha hai tumne......Right. Toh bas isi tarah
ke questions or problems ko solve karne ke liye we needed the concept of "Complex No.s
or Imaginary Numbers.
Complex Numbers
√ 2
Let us denote -1 by the Symbol i (iota). Then i = -1.
A number of the form a + ib, where a and b are real numbers, is called a Complex No.
Example:
√ , (-9)
3 + i5, (-2) + i 3 + 19i ,etc..... are examples of Complex Numbers.

(ii) Subtraction of two Complex numbers:
For any two Complex numbers Z1 and Z2 , the subtraction is done as follows:
Z1 - Z2 = Z1 + (-Z2 )
Example: (2 + 3i) - (3 + 5i) = (2 - 3) + (3 - 5)i = -1 -2i
(iii) Multiplication of two Complex numbers:
Let Z1 = a + ib and Z2= c + id are two complex numbers.
Then Z1 × Z2 = (ac - bd) + (ad + bc)i
Example: (2 + 3i) × (3 + 5i) = (2×3) + (2×5i) + (3i×3) + (3i×5i)
= 6 + 10i + 9i + 15i2
2
= 6 + 19i + 15(-1) [since i = -1]
= 6 + 19i -15
= -9 + 19i
/padhleakshay
(iv) Division of two Complex numbers:
For any two Complex numbers Z1 and Z2 , the Division is done as follows:
Example: Z1 ÷ Z2 = (2 + 3i) USE RATIONALISATION method here
(3 + 5i)
×
2
(3 - 5i) = 6-10i+9i-15i
= (2 + 3i) 2
(3 + 5i) (3 - 5i) 9 - 25i
(-1)
= 6 - i - 15 = 6 - i + 15
9 - 25(-1) 9 + 25
= 21 - i

*NOTE: While Adding and Subtracting two Complex Numbers always remember that
Real parts are to be added or subtracted together only, in the same way imaginary
parts are solved with imaginary parts only.
Powers of i (iota)
√ 2
Till now we know that i = -1 and i = -1. Now some important powers of i are given below:
3 2
1. i = i × i = -1 × i = -i
2. i4= i2 × i 2 = (-1) × (-1) = 1
3. i5= i4× i = i2 × i2× i = (-1) × (-1) × i = i
3 3
4. i 6 = ( i2) = (-1) = -1

*NOTE:

3 badi powers aa Jaye toh hamesha power ko break karna i ki terms me..

5. i96 = i8 3× i = ( i2 ) × i = (-1) × i = -1 × i = -i
1 0 0
6. i = (i2) × i = (-1) × i = 1 × i = i
/padhleakshay
which is called the multiplicative Inverse of Z such that Z.1/Z = 1.
Example:
If Z = 2 + 3i , then the multiplicative inverse of this complex number is given by
1 = 1
Z 2 + 3i × 22 -- 3i3i
1 2 - 3i
=
Z 4 - 9i2
1 2 - 3i
=
Z 4- 9(-1)
1 = 2 - 3i
Z 13
*Trick to remember easily - dekho additive inverse ka matlab hai Add ka ulta joki
Subtract hota hai...theek hai aur multiplicative inverse ka matlab multiply ka ulta
joki divide hota hai...aur yahi toh upar kiya abhi...OK
Argand Plane
In our earlier classes we have studied about the 'Cartesian Plane System' where we
plotted an ordered pair of numbers (X,Y) in the XY- Plane.
Now for plotting the Complex numbers Z = a + ib , we use the Argand Plane.
• The plane having a Complex number assigned to each of its point is called the
'Complex Plane' or 'Argand Plane'.
/padhleakshay
Example: Plot Z = 2 + 3i in the Argand Plane.
here Re(Z) = 2 & Im(Z) = 3.. So the point is (2,3).
Imaginary axis
• (2,3)
r
Real axis
(0,0)0
/padhleakshay
*NOTE: The distance of any Point P(X,Y) from the Origin O(0,0) in the Argand Plane
is r which is given by
2
r = X2+ Y
The X-axis and the Y-axis in the Argand Plane are called, respectively, the Real axis
and the Imaginary axis.
Quadratic Equations
In Class10 we have studied about the 'Quadratic Equations' which were of the general
2
form aX + bX + c = 0 and also to solve such equations we used the 'Quadratic formula'
Or Discriminant Method.
X= -b √
+ D , where D = b2- 4ac
2a
*NOTE: Here we will only have questions involving the value of discriminant(D) less
than zero i.e. D < 0 .
Example:
(i) Solve 2X2+ X + 1 = 0
2
Ans: Comparing the given quadratic equation with the general form aX + bX + c = 0 we get
a = 2, b = 1, and c = 1. Now using the Quadratic formula
√ 2
X = -b-+ D , where D = b - 4ac
2a 2
D = (1) - 4×(2)×(1)
/padhleakshay
D=1-8
D = -7
√
+ -7
Therefore, X = -1 -
