Quiz Tomorrow! (Complex #'s)

If you have not yet turned in your stamps tomorrow is your last opportunity to do so!

Your only homework tonight is to study for tomorrow's quiz! I won't give you any extra after that long, tedious worksheet I gave you. (Sorry about that :) )

Tomorrow we'll start class with our complex numbers quiz. Here's a breakdown of what will be on it (all from section 2.4 in your textbook).
  • Simplify powers of i (for instance, simplify i^31)
  • Simplify radicals with and without negatives (a couple basic simplifying radicals, and a question like today's stamp problem)
  • Adding/Subtracting complex #'s (just combine "like terms!"
  • Multiply complex numbers ("foil" or "box method"; and remember, i^2 = -1)
  • Divide complex numbers (multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator)
This will be our first quiz grade of the second quarter...so study and get an A!

See you all tomorrow!
