Evaluate this complex number square root:

8 + 7i

Define the complex square root:

a + bi:
root1 = x + yi
root2 = -x - yi

Calculate r:

r = √a2 + b2

r = √82 + 72

r = √64 + 49

r = √113

r = 10.630145812735

Calculate y:

y = √½(r-a)

y = √½(10.630145812735 - 8)

y = √½(2.6301458127346)

y = √1.3150729063673

y = 1.1467662823642

Calculate x:

x  =  b
  2y

x  =  7
  2(1.1467662823642)

x  =  7
  2.2935325647283

x = 3.0520604362246

Final Answer


Root 1 = 3.0520604362246 + 1.1467662823642i
Root 2 = -3.0520604362246 - 1.1467662823642i

How does the Complex Number Operations Calculator work?
Free Complex Number Operations Calculator - Given two numbers in complex number notation, this calculator:
1) Adds (complex number addition), Subtracts (complex number subtraction), Multiplies (complex number multiplication), or Divides (complex number division) any 2 complex numbers in the form a + bi and c + di where i = √-1.
2) Determines the Square Root of a complex number denoted as √a + bi
3) Absolute Value of a Complex Number |a + bi|
4) Conjugate of a complex number a + bi
This calculator has 4 inputs.
What 6 formulas are used for the Complex Number Operations Calculator?
a + bi + (c + di) = (a + c) + (b + d)i
a + bi - (c + di) = (a - c) + (b - d)i
(a * c) + (b * c) + (a * d) + (b * d)
The square root of a complex number a + bi, is denoted as root1 = x + yi and root2 = -x - yi
|a + bi| = sqrt(a2 + b2)
a + bi has a conjugate of a - bi and a - bi has a conjugate of a + bi.
What 8 concepts are covered in the Complex Number Operations Calculator?
absolute value
A positive number representing the distance from 0 on a number line
addition
math operation involving the sum of elements
complex number
a number that can be written in the form a + b or a - bi
