Fundamental theorem of algebra
... A first attempt at proving the theorem was made by d'Alembert in 1746, but his proof was incomplete. Among other problems, it assumed implicitly a theorem (now known as Puiseux's theorem) which would not be proved until more than a century later, and furthermore the proof assumed the fundamental the ...

Graphing and Absolute Value of Complex Numbers
... • The absolute value of a real number is the distance from zero to the number on the number line. • The absolute value of a complex number is also the distance from the number to zero, but the distance is measured from zero to the number in an Argand diagram rather than on a number line. • The most ...

... suppose there are two numbers a0 ∈ A, b0 ∈ B such that a0 ≥ b0 , then for all x ∈ M we have x < b0 ≤ a0 . Hence a0 must be in B and this is the contradiction with the fact that A ∩ B = ∅. We have shown that the pair of sets A, B is a Dedekind cut (see section 1.3) and therefore there is a real numbe ...
