We begin this lecture with the definition of complex numbers and then introduce basic operations-addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of complex numbers. Next, we shall show how the complex numbers can be represented on the xy-plane. Finally, we shall define the modulus and conjugate of a complex number.
