Hello,

Try  ComplexExpand. Start reading  ?ComplexExpand  at
the terminal. But be careful. For instance, if
	f:=a+I b
then
	In[]:= Sqrt[f*Conjugate[f]//ComplexExpand]
	Out[]= Sqtr[a^2+b^2]
but
	In[]:= Sqrt[f*Conjugate[f]]//ComplexExpand
	Out[]= Sqrt[(a+I b) Conjugate[a+I b]]

Sincerely,
			   Jesus ROJO
