Imaginary Numbers Desmos Activity. In this activity we examine complex numbers in the form a bi and perform operations of addition and multiplication. The solid sine curve rests on the complex plane as a set of complex numbers to by multiplied by a bi forming the dashed sine curve.
Imaginary numbers and complex numbers. Equation of a. The activity begins with a review of both the characteristics and forms of a parabola.
Later students will determine characteristics of the graph of a parabola given in standard form vertex form or.
A described the real portion of the number and b describes the complex portion. At the end you will be given a chance to rename imaginary numbers. The second time i used a desmos curated lesson on graphing inequalities on the number line. They have special properties that can be explored through graphing.
