Adjectives
• My pencil point is dull and needs sharpening.
• Wow! Look at that one-headed person.
• These cookies are delicious.
When do we need adjectives?
Real Numbers
• Real is an adjective
• Adjectives are only needed when there are other kinds of the same noun that do not fit that description
• So… there must be other numbers that are Not Real Numbers
• What are these numbers called?
Numbers
• Real • (Not Real)
• Imaginary
• Actually are real
• And difficult to imagine
Numbers (in 2005 AD)
• a + b i
Numbers (in 2005 AD)
• a + b i
Numbers (in 2005 AD)• a + b i
5 ½ .7
- 810
Who lives out here?
Numbers (in 2005 AD)• a + b i
5 ½ .7
- 810
Numbers where b is not zero
5 + 3 i
-2 + 7 i½ - 3 i
95 + .43 i
So what is “i” ?
• i= the square root of negative one
• i2 = negative one
• i3= the negative square root of a negative one
• i4= one

Now…let’s change channels
• Make a number tree
• Start with the set zero
• Build up to all numbers
• Include one sample in each branch
