z = −3, |z| = 3, ¯z = −3

Exercise 3. Show that z is a real number if and only if z = ¯z.

Solution. Let z = x + iy.
): If z is a real number, then z = x (y = 0). This implies ¯z = x and therefore z = ¯z.
,: If z = ¯z, then we must have x + iy = x − iy for all x, y 2 R. This implies y = −y which is true if y = 0 and
therefore z = x. This means that z is a real number.
Exercise 4. If z and w are complex numbers, prove the following equations:
|z + w|2 = |z|2 + 2Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2.
|z − w|2 = |z|2 − 2Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2.
|z + w|2 + |z − w|2 = 2
|z|2 + |w|2
.
Solution. We can easily verify that ¯¯z = z. Thus
|z + w|2 = (z + w)(z + w) = (z + w)(z¯ + w¯ ) = zz¯ + zw¯ + wz¯ + ww¯
= |z|2 + |w|2 + zw¯ + z¯w = |z|2 + |w|2 + z ¯ w + ¯z¯¯w
= |z|2 + |w|2 + zw¯ + zw¯ = |z|2 + |w|2 + 2
zw¯ + zw¯
2
= |z|2 + |w|2 + 2Re(zw¯ ) = |z|2 + 2Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2.
|z − w|2 = (z − w)(z − w) = (z − w)(z¯ − w¯ ) = zz¯ − zw¯ − wz¯ + ww¯
= |z|2 + |w|2 − zw¯ − z¯w = |z|2 + |w|2 − z ¯ w − ¯z¯¯w
= |z|2 + |w|2 − zw¯ − zw¯ = |z|2 + |w|2 − 2
zw¯ + zw¯
2
= |z|2 + |w|2 − 2Re(zw¯ ) = |z|2 − 2Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2.
|z + w|2 + |z − w|2 = |z|2 + Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2 + |z|2 − Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2
= |z|2 + |w|2 + |z|2 + |w|2 = 2|z|2 + 2|w|2 = 2
|z|2 + |w|2

Exercise 5. Use induction to prove that for z = z1 + . . . + zn; w = w1w2 . . .wn:
|w| = |w1| . . . |wn|; z¯ = z¯1 + . . . + z¯n;w¯ = w¯ 1 . . . w¯ n.
Solution. Not available.
Exercise 6. Let R(z) be a rational function of z. Show that R(z) = R(¯z) if all the coefficients in R(z) are real.
Solution. Let R(z) be a rational function of z, that is
R(z) =
anzn + an−1zn−1 + . . . a0
bmzm + bm−1zm−1 + . . . b0
where n,m are nonnegative integers. Let all coefficients of R(z) be real, that is
a0, a1, . . . , an, b0, b1, . . . , bm 2 R.
Then
R(z) =
anzn + an−1zn−1 + . . . a0
bmzm + bm−1zm−1 + . . . b0
=
anzn + an−1zn−1 + . . . a0
bmzm + bm−1zm−1 + . . . b0

1.3 The complex plane
Exercise 1. Prove (3.4) and give necessary and sufficient conditions for equality.
Solution. Let z and w be complex numbers. Then
||z| − |w|| = ||z − w + w| − |w||
||z − w| + |w| − |w||
= ||z − w||
= |z − w|
Notice that |z| and |w| is the distance from z and w, respectively, to the origin while |z − w| is the distance
between z and w. Considering the construction of the implied triangle, in order to guarantee equality, it is
necessary and sufficient that
||z| − |w|| = |z − w|
() (|z| − |w|)2 = |z − w|2
() (|z| − |w|)2 = |z|2 − 2Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2
() |z|2 − 2|z||w| + |w|2 = |z|2 − 2Re(zw¯ ) + |w|2
() |z||w| = Re(zw¯ )
() |zw¯ | = Re(zw¯ )
Equivalently, this is zw¯ 0. Multiplying this by w
w , we get zw¯ · w
w
= |w|2 · zw
0 if w , 0. If
t = zw
=

|w|2
· |w|2 · zw
. Then t 0 and z = tw.
Exercise 2. Show that equality occurs in (3.3) if and only if zk/zl 0 for any integers k and l, 1 k, l n,
for which zl , 0.
Solution. Not available.
Exercise 3. Let a 2 R and c 0 be fixed. Describe the set of points z satisfying
|z − a| − |z + a| = 2c
for every possible choice of a and c. Now let a be any complex number and, using a rotation of the plane,
describe the locus of points satisfying the above equation.
Solution. Not available.
1.4 Polar representation and roots of complex numbers
Exercise 1. Find the sixth roots of unity.
Solution. Start with z6 = 1 and z = rcis(), therefore r6cis(6) = 1. Hence r = 1 and = 2k
6 with k 2
{−3, −2, −1, 0, 1, 2}. The following table gives a list of principle values of arguments and the corresponding
value of the root of the equation z6 = 1.
0 = 0 z0 = 1

Exercise 2. Calculate the following:
a) the square roots of i
b) the cube roots of i
c) the square roots of p3 + 3i
Solution. c) The square roots of p3 + 3i.
Let z = p3 + 3i. Then r = |z| =
qp3

+ 32 = p12 and = tan−1

roots of unity. Show that if a and b are primitive nth and mth roots of unity, respectively, then ab is a kth root

= 0 as required.
Exercise 6. Show that '(t) = cis t is a group homomorphism of the additive group R onto the multiplicative
group T = {z : |z| = 1}.
Solution. Not available.
Exercise 7. If z 2 C and Re(zn) 0 for every positive integer n, show that z is a non-negative real number.
Solution. Let n be an arbitrary but fixed positive integer and let z 2 C and Re(zn) 0. Since zn =
rn(cos(n) + i sin(n)), we have
Re(zn) = rn cos(n) 0.
If z = 0, then we are done, since r = 0 and Re(zn) = 0. Therefore, assume z , 0, then r 0. Thus
Re(zn) = rn cos(n) 0
implies cos(n) 0 for all n. This implies = 0 as we will show next. Clearly, [/2, 3/2]. If
2 (0, /2), then there exists a k 2 {2, 3, . . .} such that
k+1
k . If we choose n = k + 1, we have
n
(k + 1)
k
which is impossible since cos(n) 0. Similarly, we can derive a contradiction if we assume 2 (3/2, 2).
Then 2 − /k 2 − /(k + 1) for some k 2 {2, 3, . . .}.
