Q. Find the sum of 2−7i and its complex conjugate.Write your answer in the form a+bi.
Identify the real and imaginary parts:The coefficient of i is imaginary and the number without i is real. In 2−7i, 2 is the real part and −7 is the imaginary part.
Identify Complex Conjugate: Reasoning: Identify the complex conjugate of 2−7i. Calculation: The complex conjugate of 2−7i is 2+7i.
Add complex number and conjugate:Add the original complex number and its conjugate. Calculation: (2−7i)+(2+7i)=2+2+(−7i+7i)=4+0i=4
