31.2.1 The Complex Plane: an Address for Every Complex Number
Core idea
Picture this: the horizontal axis tracks the real part and the vertical axis tracks the imaginary part, so a+bi lands exactly at the point (a,b)
Module goal. Borrowing the coordinate plane from the last stage, we give every complex number its own "address," turning it from a symbol into a visible point and arrow
