$$A = beginpmatrix1&2i\
-3i&-4endpmatrix$$
I got $û^2 - 3û - 4 + 6i^2 = 0$
-I isoloated down to $i^2 = -1/6 (û -4)(û+1)$ and wrote how û must be -1 < û < 4. I don't know what to do next

Do you know that $i^2=-1$? ThatâÂÂll give you a polynomial $lambda^2 -3lambda -10=0$ which I assume you can solve.

Just use the fact that $i^2=-1$ within your determinate of the matrix. Furthermore it should be $+3lambda$ instead of $-3lambda$. Therefore you got $lambda^2+3lambda-4+6(-1)=0$. Can you proceed from here?
Thank you very much

$$A = beginpmatrix1&2i\
-3i&-4endpmatrix$$
Now $|A-lambda I|=0$
$$beginvmatrix 1-lambda & 2i \ -3i & -4-lambda endvmatrix=0$$
$$(1-lambda)(-4-lambda)+6i^2=0$$
$$-4-lambda+4lambda+lambda^2-6=0$$
$$lambda^2+3lambda-10=0$$
$$(lambda+5)(lambda-2)$$
$$lambda=-5,2$$
To find the eigenvector you need to find the null space using the above eigen values
