ALGEBRA /TRIGONMETRY TOPIC REVIEW QUARTER Imaginary Unit: i = i i i i 0 = = i = = i Imaginary numbers appear when you have a negative number under a radical. POWERS OF I Higher powers if i: If you have an imaginary term with a power on it higher than, you must divide the power by and replace the old power with one indicated by the remainder when you divided. Remainders: Ex) i 59 59 =.5 => 0 =.00 = i 0 i 59 = i = -i =.5 = i =.50 = i =.5 = i ) If 8 is subtracted from 6, the difference is () i () 5 () i () i ) When simplified, 6 6 5 i + i i + i is equal to () i () () i () + ) If f(x) = x, what is the value of f ( i)?

MULTIPLYING/DIVIDING/GRAPHING COMPLEX NUMBERS Complex Number: made up of a real # and imaginary # a + bi Real # Imaginary # Adding and Subtracting Complex Numbers Combine like terms: (5 + i) + ( - 5i) = i Multiplying Complex Numbers First remember that i = and that i = - FOIL the binomials Simplify the expression into a + bi form Dividing Complex Numbers: Dividing complex number is the same as rationalizing with radicals. We also do not like imaginaries in the bottom of a fraction. So:. Monomial in the bottom: Multiply the top and bottom of the fraction by only the imaginary term in the denominator. Simplify.. Binomial in the bottom: Multiply the top and bottom by the conjugate of the bottom (same binomial with diff. sign between). Simplify. Graphing Complex Numbers: Graphing a complex number is like graphing a coordinate except instead of (x,y), you graph (a,b) from a + bi form. You can graph it as a point or as a vector connecting the origin and that point. ) Expressed in a + bi form, ( + i) is equivalent to () 5 + i () 5 () + i () 5) Expressed in a + bi form, 5 + i is equivalent to 0 5 0 5 () i () + i () + i () i 5 5 5 5 6) In which quadrant does the sum of + i and 5i lie?

SOLVING QUADRATICS WITH COMPLEX NUMBERS/DISCRIMINANT DISCRIMINANT: b ac Used to describe the nature of the roots If: b ac > 0 and non-perfect square roots are real, irrational, and unequal b ac > 0 and perfect square roots are real, rational, and unequal b ac = 0 roots are real, rational, and equal b ac < 0 roots are imaginary Solving Quadratics with complex numbers: The process for solving all quadratics always remains the same. You should:. Try to factor first. If you can t factor, then try. Completing the Square. Quadratic Formula You will get imaginary roots if you end up taking the square root of a negative discriminant. Things to keep in mind: roots are where the graph crosses the x-axis if your roots are imaginary, the graph will not cross the x-axis. if your roots are =, touches x-axis once (tangent) if your roots are unequal, graph crosses x-axis twice (goes UNDER the x-axis line) 5 ) What is the solution set of the equation x + =? x () ± i () ± i () ± i () ± i 8) The roots of the equation x + x = 0 are () real, rational, and unequal () real, rational, and equal () real, irrational, and unequal () imaginary 9) Which of the following graphs would best represent a parabola having a discriminant equal to 0?

SEQUENCES AND SERIES Explicit Formula: Plug value of n in to get any term. Ex: Given: cn = -n +, the 5 th term would be c5 = -5 + = Recursive Formula: need the term that came before. Ex: Given: j = () = 9 j = (9) = 8 j =, the j = ( j ) rd term would be n n Finding the Common Difference: Subtract the two terms you know and set equal to the number of spaces between the two numbers times d. Ex. Given: 5 80, find the comm. diff 80 5 = 5 5 = 5d d = 5 Finding the Common Ratio: Divide the two terms you know and set equal to r raised to the number of spaces between the two numbers. Ex. Given: 8, find the comm. ratio 8 = 8 = r r = 8 Arithmetic Sequence (addition): an = a + (n )d Where: a = st term, n = term in question d = common difference (constant you add each time) Geometric Sequence (multiplication): n g n = g ( r) Where: g = st term, n = term in question r = common ratio (constant you mult each time) Arithmetic Series (addition): n(a +a ) n Sn = Where: a = st term, n = term in question, an = last term Geometric Series (multiplication): g ( r n ) Sn = r Where: g = st term, n = term in question, r = common ratio 0) Which of the following sequences is arithmetic?

LAW OF EXPONENTS If the bases are the same, when Multiplying Keep the base the same and ADD the exponents. Dividing Keep the base the same and SUBTRACT/CANCEL the exponents Power Law- If a base with an exponent is raised to another exponent, MULTIPLY the exponents If there are multiple bases raised to an exponent be sure to distribute the exponent to ALL the bases. Zero Exponents (anything) 0 = Negative Exponents CONVERTED TO Positive Exponents. Find base with negative exponent. Relocate base, if base is in the numerator of a fraction--- -- relocate the base to the denominator -- change neg exponent to a positive exp. denominator of a fraction--- -- relocate the base to the numerator -- change neg exponent to a pos exp. Fractional Exponents converted to Radical Form ( 5x) ( 5x) numerator of the fraction stays as the exponent to the base. denominator of the fraction goes in the crack of the radical.
