IMSUB

The IMSUB function in Google Sheets is a useful tool for calculating the difference between two complex numbers. It is particularly handy when dealing with complex arithmetic. Explore our comprehensive guide to learn how to apply it effectively.

Function Syntax and Parameters

Syntax: IMSUB(first_number, second_number)

Parameters:

  • first_number: The first complex number.
  • second_number: The second complex number.

Step-by-Step Tutorial

  1. Using IMSUB to find the difference between two complex numbers:
    • Example: If the first complex number is 3+4i and the second complex number is 2+3i, then =IMSUB("3+4i", "2+3i") will return 1+i.

Use Cases and Scenarios

  1. Electrical Engineering: Calculate the difference in voltage between two complex circuits.
  2. Physics: Determine the change in impedance when two complex waves interfere.
  3. Signal Processing: Find the difference between complex signals in frequency domain analysis.
