IMCONJUGATE(z)

• where $z$ is the complex number.

Description

• This function gives the conjugate of a complex number.
• The complex number $z=a+bi$, then $IMCONJUGATE(a+bi)=z(bar)=a-bi$ and it is denoted by ${\bar {z}}$ or $z^{*}$.
• So complex number and complex conjugate both also having same real number and imaginary number with

the equal magnitude and opposite sign of a imaginary number.Also

1. $z={\bar {z}}$ if imaginary number is '0' and $z={\bar {\bar {z}}}=z$
2. $|{\bar {z}}|=|z|$ and $|z|^{2}=z.{\bar {z}}={\bar {z}}.z$
3. Real part (a)=z+z(bar)/2
4. Imaginary part(b)=z-z(bar)/2i.We can use COMPLEX function to convert the real and imginary coefficients to a complex number.

Examples

Equation	a	bi	Result	SUM
=IMCONJUGATE("3+4i")	3	4i	3+4i	3-4i
=IMCONJUGATE("6-7i")	6	-7i	6+7i
=IMCONJUGATE("8j")	0	8j	0+8j	0-8j
=IMCONJUGATE("2")	2	0	2+0i
=IMCONJUGATE("5+0i")	5	0i	5+0i
