Complex Math Question

Is this correct...

I have a complex expression Numerator/Denominator where Numerator is the complex conjugate of the Denominator.

Am I correct that the net phase angle is twice that of the Numerator?

That would simplify my life if I didn't have to make the Denominator real, which turns into an Algebraic mess :-( ...Jim Thompson

Sure. Just convert to polar coordinates and it's clear.

A exp(j phi)

----------- == exp(j 2 phi) A exp(-j phi)

I assume you mean Complex as in sqrt(-1), not Complex as in difficult. Rotating, charged colliding black holes are difficult, sums are not...
