In this video, you’ll learn how to use Desmos with complex numbers. We begin by discussing what Desmos can and cannot do with complex numbers, so you know what to expect before getting started. You’ll see how to turn on complex mode, which allows Desmos to recognize 𝑖 as the imaginary unit.
Once complex mode is enabled, we work through examples of complex number operations, including addition, multiplication, division, powers, conjugates, and finding the real and imaginary parts of a complex number. This video focuses on using Desmos as a computational tool and highlights its limitations with symbolic simplification.
