Question

What is the area of a rectangular room with a length of 5 -3i and a width of 2i?

Answer 1

Not thinking too hard about the surreal room, we multiply and get `(5 - 3i)(2i) = 6 + 10i`.

Explanation:

That's a complex room!

Assuming the question makes sense, the area of a rectangle is length times width:

`A = (5-3i)(2i) = 10 i - 6 i^2 = 6 + 10i`
