what is a complex number used for?
It's just like any other number. The important thing to know is that they exist and can be used in computations like any number.

I would like to add that they are used in AC signal analysis for one thing
Scott
Good call Scott. Also radar signals I believe.

They are used in any profession where the phase of a waveform has to be accounted for in the calculations. Imagine two electrical signals in a wire that are out of phase by 90°. At some times they will interfere constructively, others destructively. Complex numbers simplify those equations
