yep you can think it like coordination geometry in argand plane as i as y axis and normal as x axis like you can imagine it like (-5,5) in normal Cartesian plane so what do you think now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, the imaginary part of a complex number is basically equivalent to the y-value where as the real part is the x value. So you have an x-value of -5 and a y-value of 5. So (-5,5) would be where you would plot the point

so quadrant 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep
