To compare: Graphing a number on the complex plane to graphing a point on the coordinate plane also state their similarities and differences.
Similarity: The real numbers are considered on the horizontal axis in both the planes.
Difference: In the complex plane the imaginary numbers are purely considered on the y -axis on the other hand the real numbers are considered on the y -axis in a coordinate plane.
Given information:
The given statement says to compare the complex plane and the coordinate plane.
Explanation:
If a point is taken as
Now to graph this complex number, locate the real part on the x -axis and the imaginary part on the y -axis.
Now locate the point
  
If a point is taken as
Now to graph this real number, locate the real points on the x -axis and on the y -axis.
  
Similarities between complex plane and coordinate plane:
In both the planes, the complex plane and the real plane, the real numbers are considered on the horizontal axis.
Differences between complex plane and coordinate plane:
In the complex plane the imaginary numbers are purely considered on the y -axis and in case of the real plane the real numbers are considered on the y -axis.
