IMABS(in)
- IMABS(iN),where iN is the complex number of the form x+iy
Description
- This function gives the absolute value of a complex number of the form x+iy.
- Complex number z=x+iy, where x&y are real numbers and i is the imaginary unit i=sqrt(-1).
- A complex number's absolute value is measured from zero on the complex number plane.
- We can use COMPLEX function to convert real and imaginary number in to a complex number.
- The absolute value of a complex number is IMABS(z)=|z|=sqrt(x^2+y^2)
Examples
- IMABS("6+8i")=10
- IMABS("5-7i")=SQRT(74)=8.60232
- IMABS("-3-5i")=SQRT(34)=5.83095
