Answer: 5.
- A 3
- B 4
- C 5
- D 7
Correct answer: C. 5
Explanation: |z| = sqrt(3<sup>2</sup> + 4<sup>2</sup>) = sqrt(9+16) = sqrt(25) = 5.
A complex number z = a+ib is plotted as a point (or vector from the origin) on the Argand plane, with the real part along the horizontal axis and the imaginary part along the vertical; its modulus |z| is the vector's length, and its argument θ is the angle from the positive real axis.
Concept context
Complex numbers in a+ib form, modulus, argument, polar form, cube roots of unity, and quadratic equations with complex roots
