write 1i and 1sqrt 3i in polar form and find their productSo
write 1+i and -1+sqrt (3i) in polar form and find their product.
Solution
1+i and -1 + sqrt 3i
polar form of 1+i
r= sqrt ( x^2 + y^2 ) = sqrt ( 1^2 + 1^2 ) = sqrt 2
theta = tan^-1 ( y/x) = tan^-1 ( 1) = 45 degrees
polar form = sqrt 2 ( cos 45 + i sin 45 )
-1 + sqrt 3i
r = sqrt ( 1^2 + 3 ) = 2
theta = tan^-1 ( sqrt 3 / 1) = 60 degrees
polar form = 2 ( cos 60 + i sin 60)
product = (-1-sqrt3) + i ( sqrt 3 -1)
