The document discusses expressing complex numbers in the form a + bi and finding the values of a and b that satisfy given equations. It provides 3 examples: 1) Finding p and q such that 3 - 2i = (p + qi)(5 + i). 2) Expressing √15 + 8i in the form a + bi. 3) Finding the values of h and k such that (-1+3i)/(2+i) = √h + ki.
