Question

How can you find the distance between two complex numbers?

Answer 1

`d = √((a_2 - a_1)^2 + (b_2 - b_1)^2)`

Explanation:

The distance between two complex numbers is similar to the distance between two points on the coordinate plane.

Let a₁ + b₁i and a₂ + b₂i be two points on the complex plane.

Then the distance, d, between the two points is

`d = √((a_2 - a_1)^2 + (b_2 - b_1)^2)`
