A complex number is a number of the form a+bi, where:
A. a and bi are imaginary numbers
B. a and bi are real numbers
C. a is a real number and bi is an imaginary number
D. a is an imaginary number and bi is a real number

Answer :

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a complex number is a number of the form a+bi

we have to choose the correct statement.

As we know,

A complex number is a number expressed in the form of a+bi where a and b are real numbers and

[tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex]

which is imaginary.

Hence, we say that a is a real number and bi is an imaginary number.

Option C is correct.

The option (C) a is a real number and bi is an imaginary number is correct.

What is a complex number?

It is defined as the number which can be written as x+iy where x is the real number or real part of the complex number and y is the imaginary part of the complex number and i is the iota which is nothing but a square root of -1.

We have a complex number:

= a + ib

As we know from the definition 'a' is the real part of the complex number and 'b' is the imaginary part of the complex number.

Thus, the option (C) a is a real number and bi is an imaginary number is correct.
