Identify real/imaginary complex numbers and write in standard form a+bia+bi. Examples: 6i6i, 1+i3\frac{1+i}{3}, 7\sqrt{7}, π2\frac{\pi}{2}.

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. A complex number is in the form a+bia+bi, where aa is the real part and bb is the imaginary part.
2. A complex number is real if b=0b=0.
3. A complex number is imaginary if a=0a=0 and b0b \neq 0.
4. The standard form of a complex number does not include ii in the denominator.

STEP 2

Identify the type of the complex number 6i6i and write it in standard form.
Since there is no real part and the imaginary part is 6i6i, we can write it as 0+6i0 + 6i.

STEP 3

Conclude the type of the complex number 6i6i.
The complex number 6i6i is purely imaginary.

STEP 4

Identify the type of the complex number 1+i3\frac{1+i}{3} and write it in standard form.
First, we need to divide both the real and imaginary parts by 33.

STEP 5

Perform the division to obtain the standard form.
1+i3=13+i3\frac{1+i}{3} = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{i}{3}

STEP 6

Conclude the type of the complex number 1+i3\frac{1+i}{3}.
The complex number 1+i3\frac{1+i}{3} is neither purely real nor purely imaginary since it has both a real part, 13\frac{1}{3}, and an imaginary part, i3\frac{i}{3}.

STEP 7

Identify the type of the complex number 7\sqrt{7} and write it in standard form.
Since 7\sqrt{7} is a real number and there is no imaginary part, we can write it as 7+0i\sqrt{7} + 0i.

STEP 8

Conclude the type of the complex number 7\sqrt{7}.
The complex number 7\sqrt{7} is purely real.

STEP 9

Identify the type of the complex number π2\frac{\pi}{2} and write it in standard form.
Since π2\frac{\pi}{2} is a real number and there is no imaginary part, we can write it as π2+0i\frac{\pi}{2} + 0i.

STEP 10

Conclude the type of the complex number π2\frac{\pi}{2}.
The complex number π2\frac{\pi}{2} is purely real.
