You should remember that the absolute value of the complex number z is the magnitude of the vector whose coordinates are such that:
Hence, evaluating the absolute value of the given complex number yields
z= 3-4i
The module of z is lzl
We know that:
lzl = sqrt(a^2 + b^2)
= sqrt(9 + 16) = sqrt25
= 5
Then the module of z is:
lzl = 5
