Case III. Conjugate Complex Roots

  1. Suppose that the auxiliary equation has a nonrepeated complex root α + iβ. Then, since the coefficients are real, the conjugate complex number α – iβ is also a non-repeated root. Thus, the solution given in (79) becomes

    where k1 = c1 + c2, k2 = i(c1 – c2).

  2. If two pairs of imaginary roots are equal, then

     

    m1 = m2 = a + iβ and m3 = m4 = α – iβ.

     

    Using Case II, the complete solution is
