Answer

conjugate: $12+5i$ modulus: 13

Work Step by Step

To find the conjugate of a complex number, reverse the sign of the imaginary part, as follows: $\overline{12-5i}=12+5i$ Find the modulus using the formula $\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$ for $a+bi$, as follows: $|12-5i|=\sqrt{12^{2}+(-5)^{2}}=\sqrt{144+25}=\sqrt{169}=13$ Hence, conjugate: $12+5i$ modulus: $13$
