\[\Large\rm z=\color{royalblue}{a}+\color{orangered}{bi}\]The blue is the real part of this complex number. The orange is the imaginary part. Does that help you get started at least? :) You should have one really really easy match to make, *cough* plane with plane.

so is 1 c @zepdrix ?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Hmm skip #1 for now. You should be able to match up the other 3 using the information I gave you. And then #1 will be whatever is left over.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i put 4. with b. and i put 3. with d. already

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and I think that 1. is c. is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@zepdrix ?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

#1 doesn't seem to have a correct matching, it doesn't make sense. I guess d would be the closest match for #1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then i don't get it what would "real part" match?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@zepdrix

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Real part? :o I wrote it in blue..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

zepdrix (zepdrix):
