Answer: 5 + 3i.
- A -5 - 3i
- B 5 - 3i
- C -5 + 3i
- D 5 + 3i
Correct answer: D. 5 + 3i
Explanation: Conjugate of a + ib is a - ib. So conjugate of 5 - 3i is 5 + 3i.
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
