Complex Multiplication is Closed/Proof 2

Theorem
The set of complex numbers $\C$ is closed under multiplication:
 * $\forall z, w \in \C: z \times w \in \C$

Proof
From the formal definition of complex numbers, we define the following:


 * $z = \left({x_1, y_1}\right)$
 * $w = \left({x_2, y_2}\right)$

Then from the definition of complex multiplication $z w = \left({x_1 x_2 - y_1 y_1, x_1 y_2 + x_2 y_1}\right)$.

The Real Numbers form Totally Ordered Field, so:
 * $x_1 x_2 - y_1 y_1 \in \R$

and:
 * $x_1 y_2 + x_2 y_1 \in \R$

Hence the result.
