16-15 Specifying the Complex Number
Imaginary Unit
In mathematics, the imaginary unit i allows the real number system R to be extended to the
complex number system C.
In electrical engineering and related fields, the imaginary unit is often written as j to avoid
confusion with a changing current, traditionally denoted by i.
Your ClassPad lets you specify either "i" or "j" for the imaginary unit.
Cla
Pad Operation
(1) On the application menu, tap
• This starts up the System application.
(2) Tap [System] and then [Imaginary Unit] to display the
Imaginary Unit dialog box.
(3) On the Imaginary Unit dialog box, select the type of
imaginary unit you want to use.
(4) After the setting is the way you want, tap [Set] to apply it and close the Imaginary Unit
dialog box, or tap [Cancel] to close without changing the setting.
