Returns the absolute value of a complex number
The function \(Magnitude\) returns the magnitude (or absolute value) of a complex number.
The magnitude corresponds to the absolute value of a complex number. It is the distance from the intersection of the x-axis and the y-axis to the two-dimensional point represented by a complex number.
The absolute value is calculated as follows
\( | a + bi | = \sqrt{ (a^2 + b^2)} \)
The magnitude and the phase define the position of a point representing a complex number in the polar coordinate system. You can determine a complex number based on its polar coordinates instead of its Cartesian coordinates by calling the FromPolar function.
Magnitude (re + im)
Magnitude(3+4i)= 5
