Hypercomplex analysis

Hypercomplex analysis is a type of math where you can work with shapes that have more than three sides. It's like a regular math, but with different shapes and numbers. For example, instead of only working with triangles and squares, hypercomplex analysis lets you work with shapes that have four or more sides, like pentagons or hexagons. You can also work with complex numbers, meaning numbers that are made up of two parts. With hypercomplex analysis, you can draw a picture of the shape you need, and then use math to figure out things like the area or the perimeter of the shape.
