What is true about the complex number -5 - 5i? Check all that apply. A. The modulus is 5. B. It lies in quadrant 3. C. It lies in quadrant 2. D. The modulus is 5 square root of 2.
\[modulus = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}\]
Left and down. What quadrant is that?
3?
yep
So only B is the right answer
nope
thre is one more answer
What's the modulus?
modulus = square root of a^2+b^2
OOOHHHH i see yeah, ur right
no modulus is not 5
3rd quadrant -5=x -5i=y (x,y) -5 on x axes -5 on y axis
modulus is the square root of (-5²+-5²) which is root 50
root 50 = 5root 2 B and D are correct
sorry for so many posts, had to figure it out in my head since i ran out of paper
I thought the purpose of this site is the help with math problem by giving pointers instead of just solving them.
I already figured it out by following modulus = square root of a^2+b^2 its just clarification no need to be sensitive..
okay -5²+-5²= root 50 root 50= root 25 x root 2 root 25=5 5 root 2
if there is anything else not explained, let me know
Thanks
