If you regard C as a complex vector space, then it is not isomorphic to R^2, but if you regard it as a real vector space, then it is isomorphic to R^2.

it is obvious there is no answer, to put it in very simple terms, imagine going from comples space of numbers to two dimentional space, i portion of the c space is lost and if you try to reverse the above process you are not garanteed to get the same information so c and r^2 are not isomorphic (basically not all linear transformations from c to r^2 is invertable)
