  A pair of complex numbers who have the same real and imaginary parts, but the imaginary parts have opposite signs. Their products are a nonzero real number.
• Coordinate Plane


  This is a plane with two axes as a frame of reference. The x-axis is a horizontal line and the y-axis is perpendicular to it (i.e., the y-axis is verti, The intersection of the two axes is called the origin.
