    The document summarizes properties of complex numbers. It shows that the magnitude of the product of two complex numbers z1 and z2 is equal to the product of the individual magnitudes. It also demonstrates that the magnitude of (a + ib)(c + id) can be written as (ac - bd)2 + (bc + ad)2, where ac - bd and bc + ad are integers.

    Chapter 1, Exercise 4, p 45

    On page 7 we see that |z|2 = zz, and that z1 z2 = z1 z2


    So
    |z1 z2 |2 = z1 z2 z1 z2 = z1 z1 z2 z2
    and so
    |(a + ib)(c + id)|2 = (a + ib)(a − ib)(c + id)(c − id) = (a2 + b2 )(c2 + d2 ) = M N
    Also
    |(a + ib)(c + id)|2 = |ac − bd + i(bc + ad)|2 = |p + iq|2 ,
    where, p = ac − bd and q = bc + ad
    Since a, b, c, d are integers, p and q are also integers and so
    |p + iq|2 = (p + iq)(p − iq) = p2 + q 2 = M N
