Multiplying Complex Numbers Concepts

The video tutorial explains how to multiply a complex number by negative 3i. It begins by discussing the multiplication of a complex number z by 3, explaining that the result has the same angle but a modulus three times larger. The tutorial then explores the effect of multiplying by a negative, which flips the number 180 degrees. Finally, it covers the impact of multiplying by i, which rotates the number 90 degrees, illustrating the transformation of negative 3z to negative 3i times z.

What is the initial task when multiplying a complex number z by -3i?

• To calculate the angle of z

• To find the modulus of z

• To plot the point representing the product

• To determine the real part of z

How does multiplying a complex number by 3 affect its properties?

• It changes the angle but not the modulus

• It triples the modulus while keeping the angle the same

• It halves the modulus and changes the angle

• It doubles the modulus and reverses the angle

What is the modulus of 3z compared to z?

• Three times that of z

• Twice that of z

• The same as z

• Half that of z
