About this worksheet

Complex conjugates, and dividing complex numbers. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can write a conjugate by flipping a point across the real axis.
  • I can multiply a number by its conjugate and get a real number.
  • I can divide complex numbers by multiplying the top and bottom by the conjugate of the bottom.

Standard: N-CN.A.3 (+)

Words to know

conjugate: The mirror image across the real axis: a + bi becomes a − bi.

real axis: The across line through 0.

reciprocal: The number that multiplies to make 1.

denominator: The bottom of a fraction.

Common mistakes

Your child changed the sign of the real part to make the conjugate.

Your child changed both signs, which is the opposite number, not the conjugate.

Your child used i² = 1 instead of i² = -1.

What to say

Ask: when a point is flipped across the across line, which part changes?

Ask: does a flip across the across line move a point left or right?

Ask: what is i × i?
