Circle the best answer, or write your answer on the line.

  1. Luz measures a pin at 2 + 3i from 0. Leave it as a square root (type √ or sqrt). What is |2 + 3i|?

  2. Noah's robot rolls from 0 to 5 − 2i. Leave it as a square root (type √ or sqrt). What is |5 − 2i|?

  3. Pia finds the absolute value of -6 − i. Leave it as a square root (type √ or sqrt). What is |-6 − i|?

  4. Ren has two pins on a grid map, at -1 + 3i and 3 + 6i. How far apart are they?

  5. Tala flies two kites, drawn at -2 + 3i and 4 − 5i on the complex plane. How far apart are they?

  6. Zee's robot drives straight from 5 − i to -7 + 4i. How far does the robot drive?

  7. Esme finds the distance between -3 − 4i and 5 + 11i for a puzzle. How far apart are they?

  8. Jun puts a snack stop halfway between pins at 2 + 6i and -4 + 2i. What is the midpoint, in a + bi form?

  9. Kira ties a ribbon halfway between kites at 5 − 3i and 1 + 7i. What is the midpoint, in a + bi form?

  10. Milo finds the midpoint of 3 + 4i and 7 − 4i on a puzzle card. What is the midpoint, in a + bi form?

About this worksheet

The complex plane, and the absolute value of a complex number. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

  • I can plot a + bi and name a point as a + bi.
  • I can find |a + bi|, the distance from 0, with a right triangle.
  • I can find the distance and the midpoint between two complex numbers.

Standard: N-CN.B.4 (+), N-CN.B.5 (+), N-CN.B.6 (+)

Words to know

complex plane: A grid: real numbers across, i numbers up.

midpoint: The point halfway between two points.

distance: The length of the straight segment between two points.

Common mistakes

Your child swapped the two parts: the real part goes across and the i part goes up.

Your child got the sign of the i part wrong: below the real axis is negative.

Your child stopped at the distance squared and did not take the square root.

What to say

Ask: which number tells how far across?

Ask: is this point above or below the across line?

Ask: which number times itself gives this?

Questions parents ask
