Imaginary Numbers Are Real [Part 2: A Little History]
Ғылым және технология
Want to learn more or teach this series? Check out the Imaginary Numbers are Real Workbook: www.welchlabs.com/resources.
Imaginary numbers are not some wild invention, they are the deep and natural result of extending our number system. Imaginary numbers are all about the discovery of numbers existing not in one dimension along the number line, but in full two dimensional space. Accepting this not only gives us more rich and complete mathematics, but also unlocks a ridiculous amount of very real, very tangible problems in science and engineering.
Part 1: Introduction
Part 2: A Little History
Part 3: Cardan's Problem
Part 4: Bombelli's Solution
Part 5: Numbers are Two Dimensional
Part 6: The Complex Plane
Part 7: Complex Multiplication
Part 8: Math Wizardry
Part 9: Closure
Part 10: Complex Functions
Part 11: Wandering in Four Dimensions
Part 12: Riemann's Solution
Part 13: Riemann Surfaces
Part 2 especially owes a debt to Paul Nahin's excellent book: An Imaginary Tale: The Story of sqrt(-1). Nahin presents a very thorough account of the development of imaginary numbers, which was invaluable in creating this series.

Math is supposed to integrate arithmetic, algebra, calculus, history, and LOGIC. Show me any other dimension beyond the 3 we know of; use a measuring tape while doing so. There are no results from the sqrt of a negative. Once you integrate this, you can add to the math history lesson that men have often fallen prey to ridiculous contradictions as a matter of popular ideas. IE God, the Minimum Wage, Quantitative Easing, Altruism.... and the square root of -1

The square root of 9 is strictly 3. When approaching x^2 = 9, only when you square root do you get the plus-minus in front of the positive root to indicate +-3
@pipolwes000
8 жыл бұрын
+WoLF42 No. Both 3 and -3 are square roots of 9, since 3*3 = 9 and (-3)*(-3) = (-1)*(-1)*(3)*(3) = 3*3 = 9. Depending on what problem you are solving, different solutions will make sense but both positive and negative values are valid square roots when you have no other constraints.

Whoa! This is a shocker to me, right from the start. I was no great student in 1965, but numbers always came easily to me, and I remember a happy 98% on our (New York) statewide final exam in algebra. My takeaway from that time is that quadratics were solved on inspection, and that there was no mechanism to find the roots. The concept of a universal formula, as I recall, was actively denied. I wonder if this is senility! What could possibly have made me think that? Well, it's a delight to see it now, all these years later.
x^3 = 15x + 4 has three real-valued solutions, the simplest of which is 4. 4^3 = 64. 15*4 + 4 = 64. Apparently, you need imaginary numbers to solve it, even though the solution is real. Interesting.

Zero is the capital letter in every equation ie, 0+6/2(0+3) = 0+1. What y'all are doing here is not maths... it's not an equation... it's a function... it's code... Binary code... FX function is not about working out the area of part of a circle. FX function is about drawing circles and curves using pixels! Remember FX Graphics in 1990?? In binary code, we don't use a capital 0 to start equations and we do not recognise brackets at all... 6/2(3) = 6/2*3 = 9. Maths is all but lost, binary code is the new religion. A religion where the devil has tricked u into believing there are infinite universes, black holes, wormholes, faster than light travel, an abundance of life in our galaxy, at the same time convincing u that he doesn't exist, and that even in infinite universes, there is not a god in any of them o.0

Square root is a noun, Taking the principle square root is what you are referring to. Extra: *Solutions of a polynomial are also referred to as roots;* if there were only positive ones, unless all quadratics had multiplicities, only having roots greater than zero would break the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra for equations as simple as x^2-1=0.

Amazing video.. loved it!!
It really helps to think of negative numbers and imaginary numbers as not numbers, but operations/operators. They don't exist is real life; they help as intermediaries in problem solving.

That is true for all numbers, they do not exist in real life. Any number is but a representation of something. You can say: give me one apple, but you cannot say give me a one.
