Example of Complex Modulus
- $\cmod {2 \overline {z_1} - 3 \overline {z_2} - 2} = 15$
Proof
\(\ds \cmod {2 \overline {z_1} - 3 \overline {z_2} - 2}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \cmod {2 \paren {\overline {4 - 3 i} } - 3 \paren {\overline {-1 + 2 i} } - 2}\) | Definition of $z_1$ and $z_2$ | |||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \cmod {2 \paren {4 + 3 i} - 3 \paren {-1 - 2 i} - 2}\) | Definition of Complex Conjugate | |||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \cmod {\paren {8 + 6 i} - \paren {-3 - 6 i} - 2}\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \cmod {\paren {8 - \paren {-3} } + \paren {6 - \paren {-6} } i - 2}\) | Definition of Complex Subtraction | |||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \cmod {11 + 12 i - 2}\) | ||||||||||||
