Thought-Process to Discover Knowledge

Welcome to nubtrek.

Books and other education websites provide "matter-of-fact" knowledge. Instead, nubtrek provides a thought-process to discover knowledge.

In each of the topic, the outline of the thought-process, for that topic, is provided for learners and educators.

Read in the blogs more about the unique learning experience at nubtrek.

User Guide

To make best use of nubtrek, understand what is available.

nubtrek is designed to explain mathematics and science for young readers. Every topic consists of four sections.

nub,

trek,

jogger,

exercise.

User Guide

nub is the simple explanation of the concept.

This captures the small-core of concept in simple-plain English. The objective is to make the learner to think about.

User Guide

trek is the step by step exploration of the concept.

Trekking is bit hard, requiring one to sweat and exert. The benefits of taking the steps are awesome. In the trek, concepts are explained with exploratory questions and your thinking process is honed step by step.

User Guide

jogger provides the complete mathematical definition of the concepts.

This captures the essence of learning and helps one to review at a later point. The reference is available in pdf document too. This is designed to be viewed in a smart-phone screen.

User Guide

exercise provides practice problems to become fluent in the concepts.

This part does not have much content as of now. Over time, when resources are available, this section will have curated and exam-prep focused questions to test your knowledge.

Complex addition is commutative : Complex numbers can be swapped in complex addition.

Keep tapping on the content to continue learning.
Starting on learning "Commutative law of complex numbers". ;; In this page, you will learn that Complex numbers can be swapped in complex addition.

What does 'commute' mean?

• to go to and fro on a regular basis
• It is not an English word.

The answer is 'to go to and fro between two places on a regular basis'.

Consider the addition and subtraction of complex numbers. z_3 = z_1+z_2 given as a_3+ib_3 = (a_1+a_2)+i(b_1+b_2), where a_1, a_2, b_1, b_2 in RR.

Will z_1+z_2 = z_2+z_1?

• Yes, the real and imaginary part addition is nothing but real number addition.
• No. The properties of complex numbers need to be studied to understand.

Is commutative property defined for complex subtraction?

• No. The properties are not defined for inverse operations.
• Yes. The properties are defined for subtraction too

The answer is 'No. The properties are not defined for inverse operations.' Subtraction is the inverse of addition.

Subtraction is the inverse of addition.

The commutative property has to be used in the following way.
z_1-z_2
quad quad = z_1 + (-z_2)
quad quad =(-z_2) + z_1 (commutative property of addition.)

Given two complex numbers z_1, z_2; z_1+z_2 = 3.1+i2.9. Find the value of z_2+z_1.

• 3.1+i2.9
• 3.1-i2.9
• -3.1+i2.9
• 2.9+i3.1

The answer is '3.1+i2.9'

Yes. The properties are defined for subtraction too
Subtraction is the inverse of addition. ;; The commutative property has to be used in the following way. ;; z1 minus z2 ; equals; z1 + minus z2 ; equals ; minus z2 + z1 ; by commutative property of addition.
Given two complex numbers z1, z2; z1+z2 = 3 point 1+i 2 point 9. Find the value of z2+z1.
1
3 point 1 + i 2 point 9
2
3 point 1 minus i 2 point 9
3
minus 3 point 1 + i 2 point 9
4
