1. The imaginary unit, denoted by 'i', is defined as the square root of  .

2. A complex number is typically written in the form  , where 'a' is the real part and 'b' is the imaginary part.

3. The complex conjugate of a complex number a + bi is  .

5. Simplify the expression: (3 + 2i) + (1 - 4i)

6. Simplify the expression: (5 - 3i) - (2 + 6i)

7. Multiply the complex numbers: (2 + i)(4 - 3i)

8. Divide the complex numbers: (5 + 2i) / (1 - i)

9. Plot the complex number 3 - 4i on the complex plane below.

10. The impedance Z (in ohms) in a series circuit is given by Z = R + jX, where R is the resistance and X is the reactance. If a circuit has a resistance of 10 ohms and a reactance of 5 ohms, and another circuit has a resistance of 8 ohms and a reactance of -3 ohms, find the total impedance if the two circuits are connected in series. (j is used instead of i in electrical engineering).
