Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the value of |z| if z = -1 - i?
  • Step 1: Identify the complex number z. Here, z = -1 - i.
  • Step 2: Recognize that the modulus |z| is calculated using the formula |z| = √(a² + b²), where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part.
  • Step 3: Determine the real part (a) and the imaginary part (b) of z. For z = -1 - i, a = -1 and b = -1.
  • Step 4: Substitute the values of a and b into the formula: |z| = √((-1)² + (-1)²).
  • Step 5: Calculate (-1)², which equals 1. So, |z| = √(1 + 1).
  • Step 6: Add the values inside the square root: 1 + 1 = 2.
  • Step 7: Take the square root of 2: |z| = √2.
