Definition of pure imaginary numbers:

Any positive real number b,

b b 1 bi
where i is the imaginary unit and bi is called the pure imaginary number.

12 4 = 3 with remainder 0

To figure out where we are in the cycle divide the exponent by 4 and look at the remainder.

Definition of Complex Numbers Any number in form a+bi, where a and b are real numbers and i is imaginary unit.

Definition of Equal Complex Numbers Two complex numbers are equal if their real parts are equal and their imaginary parts are equal. If a + bi = c + di, then a = c and b = d

When adding or subtracting complex numbers, combine like terms.
