Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If z = 3 + 4i, what is the value of |z|^2? (2019)
  • Step 1: Identify the complex number z, which is given as z = 3 + 4i.
  • Step 2: Recall that the magnitude (or modulus) of a complex number z = a + bi is calculated using the formula |z| = sqrt(a^2 + b^2).
  • Step 3: In this case, a = 3 and b = 4.
  • Step 4: Calculate a^2, which is 3^2 = 9.
  • Step 5: Calculate b^2, which is 4^2 = 16.
  • Step 6: Add the results from Step 4 and Step 5: 9 + 16 = 25.
  • Step 7: The value of |z|^2 is equal to 25.
