Prove the complex series converge absolutely

Prove the complex $$sum_{k=0}^infty (k+k^2i)^{-1}$$
series converge absolutely



Solution: by triangle inequality, we have
$$|k+k^2i|ge k^2-k ge {k^2over 2}$$ if $$k ge 2 $$
how to understand this??

    Looks good to me. Though I'm not sure about your index of summation starting from $0$. And maybe say something about the reverse triangle inequality?

I am assuming that the sum begins with $k=1$.



What you did is correct and proves that the series converges absolutely. You can also use the fact that$$frac1{k+k^2i}=frac{k-k^2i}{k^2+k^k}=frac1{k+k^3}-frac1{1+k^2}i$$and that both series$$sum_{k=1}^inftyfrac1{k+k^3}text{ and }sum_{k=1}^inftyfrac1{1+k^2}$$converge, by the comparaison test.
